A Comparison of Three Array-Based Clustering Techniques for Manufacturing Cellular Formation

A Comparison of Three Array-Based Clustering Techniques for Manufacturing Cellular Formation

This paper examines three array-based clustering algorithms—rank order clustering (ROC), direct clustering analysis (DCA), and bond energy analysis (BEA)—for manufacturing cell formation. According to our test, bond energy analysis outperforms the other two methods, regardless of which measure or da...
