“…Some examples of this kind of applications are information retrieval [1], social network analysis [2], text segmentation [3], among others. In the literature, several algorithms have been proposed for overlapping clustering [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11], which are different according to their mathematical basis and clustering strategies, as well as the type of datasets they can process. Due to their simplicity, the Kmeans algorithm [12] together with its variants are clustering algorithms that have been widely used in several applications.…”
