A PCA Based K-Means Clustering Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Nodes

Divleen Kaur, Ravi Kumar

Abstract


This paper presents a novel and improved approach for K-Means Clustering of wireless sensor networks, by using Principal Component Analysis for data reduction on the raw data. A wireless sensor network consisting of 100 nodes is classified into three different clusters using PCA based K-Means Algorithm. Davies-Bouldin Index is used as a parameter to check the effectiveness of the clustering algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that the PCA based K-Means Algorithm increases the quality of clustering and assigns sensor nodes to their appropriate cluster more efficiently and hence provides a more robust and effective clustering of the wireless sensor network as compared to the conventional K-Means Algorithm.

Keywords: PCA, K-means, davies-bouldin index, wireless sensor networks
