This paper presents a new multi-clustering network for the purpose of
intelligent data classification. In this network, the first layer is a
self-organized clustering layer and the second layer is a restricted
clustering layer with a neighborhood mechanism. A new clustering algor
ithm is developed in this system for the efficiently use of parallel p
rocessors. This parallel algorithm enables the nodes of this network t
o be independently processed in order to minimize data communication l
oad among processors. Using the parallel processors, the quite low cal
culation cost can be realized among the conventional networks. For exa
mple, a 4-processor parallel computing system has shown its ability to
reduce the time taken for data classification to 26.75% of a single p
rocessor system without declining its performance.
