an ant-based algorithm for cluster analysis.
KANTS
ECTA 2012, Barcelona, Spain
Basic concept: stigmergy,
communication via the environment.
Main contribution: the swarm is the set of data samples

KANTS: Working Mechanism
o Swarm: data sampleso Habitat: grid of cellsoEach cell is a vector with the same cardinality as
the data samples vectors.
o Rule 1: ants move towards regions where environmental (grid) vectors are more similar to the vector they carry.
o Rule 2: update grid vector.o Rule 3: evaporation.

KANTS: equations and parameters
Rule 2: update vectors
Rule 3: Evaporation
Rule 1: Move
Please note parameters β and δ. They define how the ants move.

Result: similar ants/data samples tend to cluster.

o Sleep data from Electroencephalogram (EEG) .
o Hjorth parameters describe sleep EEG with three-variable vectors.
o Translation to RGB is trivial and direct.
o The images are representations of a person’s sleep.
o Each person and each person’s night sleep generates a different image: fingerprints of sleep.

o The algorithm has a creative potential.
o We have proposed two artworks with different characteristics.
o Study other forms of representation when the cardinality of the vectors is >3
o 4-variables: maybe 3-dimensional representations.
o Many variables. How to represent them?
