This paper proposes an algorithm for clustering using an information-theoretic based criterion. The cross entropy between elements in different clusters is used as a measure of quality of the partition. The proposed algorithm uses "classical" clustering algorithms to initialize some small regions (auxiliary clusters) that will be merged to construct the final clusters. The algorithm was tested using several databases with different spatial distributions. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
