Clustering has been traditionally viewed as an unsupervised method for data analysis. In real world application,however,some background prior knowledge can be easily obtained,such as pairwise constraints. It has been demonstrated that constraints can improve clustering performance. In this paper,the drawback of only incorporating pairwise constraints in clustering is firstly analyzed,and then an inherent prior knowledge in data sets,namely space consistency prior knowledge is exploited. The method of utiliz...
