Title: When Fireflies Cluster; Enhancing Automatic Clustering via Centroid-Guided Firefly Optimization
Abstract:
arXiv:2605.18460v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work presents a novel variant of the Firefly Algorithm (FA) for data clustering, addressing limitations of traditional methods like K-Means that struggle with non-uniform cluster shapes, densities, and the need for pre-defining the number of clusters. The proposed algorithm introduces a centroid movement strategy and a multi-objective fitness function that balances compactness, separation, and a novel TSP-based navigation penalty. It automatic
