Peer reviewedYu, Clement T. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1974
A clustering algorithm which is tree-like in structure, and is based on user queries, is presented. It is compared to some existing algorithms and is found to be superior. (Author)

Peer reviewedMiyamoto, S.; Nakayama, K. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1983
A method of two-stage clustering of literature based on citation frequency is applied to 5,065 articles from 57 journals in environmental and civil engineering. Results of related methods of citation analysis (hierarchical graph, clustering of journals, multidimensional scaling) applied to same set of articles are compared. Ten references are…

Peer reviewedGordon, Michael D. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1991
Discussion of clustering of documents and queries in information retrieval systems focuses on the use of a genetic algorithm to adapt subject descriptions so that documents become more effective in matching relevant queries. Various types of clustering are explained, and simulation experiments used to test the genetic algorithm are described. (27…
