There are a variety of ways in which conceptual patterns (the AI contribution to clustering) play a role in the clustering process. Two distinct conceptual clustering paradigms (conceptual sorting of exemplars and concept discovery) are described briefly . Then six types of conceptual clustering algorithms are characterized. attempting to cover the present spectrum of mechanisms used to conceptualize the clustering process.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/42","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/0042.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/42.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/bibtex/42","volume":{"slug":"1987","title":"Proceedings of the Tenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1987","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/","year":1987,"location":"Milan, Italy","dates":"","editors":"John McDermott","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Knowledge Acquisition","track":"Knowledge Acquisition","number":42,"pages":{"first":211,"last":212},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
