By regularizing the fuzzy c-means method with fuzzy entropy, a membership function similar to the Fermi-Dirac distribution function, well known in statistical mechanics, is obtained, and, while optimizing its parameters by SA, the minimum of the Helmholtz free energy for fuzzy c-means clustering is searched by DA. Numerical experiments are performed and the obtained results indicate that this combinatorial algorithm of SA and DA can represent various cluster shapes and divide data more properly and stably than the standard single DA algorithm.}, pages = {1232--1239}, title = {Fuzzy Entropy Based Fuzzy c-Means Clustering with Deterministic and Simulated Annealing Methods}, volume = {E92-D}, year = {2009} }
