Figure D.16: φ (NMI) boxplots of the cluster ensemble E, the selected cluster ensemble component<br />

λref and the self-refined consensus clustering solutions λc p i on the WDBC data<br />

collection across all the consensus functions employed. The green dashed vertical line identifies<br />

the clustering solution selected by the supraconsensus function in each experiment.<br />

D.2.8 miniNG data set<br />

The application of the selection-based self-refining procedure on the miniNG data collection<br />

yields the boxplots presented in figure D.19. Notice that the selected cluster ensemble<br />

component λref is comparable to the best individual partitions contained in the ensemble<br />

E. Despite of this, the self-refining process manages to obtain even higher quality consensus<br />

clusterings when based on the CSPA, MCLA, ALSAD and KMSAD consensus functions.<br />

Unfortunately, the supraconsensus functions fails in most occasions in selecting the maximum<br />

φ (NMI) clustering —in fact, it conducts the correct election when the EAC, HGPA<br />

and SLSAD consensus functions are employed.<br />

D.2.9 Segmentation data set<br />

Figure D.20 presents the φ (NMI) boxplots of the selection-based self-refined clustering solutions<br />

obtained on the Segmentation data set. Despite the notable quality of the selected<br />

cluster ensemble component λref, notice that important quality gains are obtained when<br />
