Automatically finding clusters in normalized cuts

Normalized Cuts is a state-of-the-art spectral method for clustering. By applying spectral techniques, the data becomes easier to cluster and then k-means is classically used. Unfortunately the number of clusters must be manually set and it is very sensitive to initialization. Moreover, k-means tend...
