Affinity Propagation Clustering Algorithm
An Affinity Propagation Clustering Algorithm is a clustering algorithm that iteratively updates messages between data points until convergence.
- AKA: Affinity Propagation, AP.

- QUOTE: Affinity Propagation is a clustering algorithm used in many applications. It iteratively updates messages between data points until convergence. The message updating process enables Affinity Propagation to have higher clustering quality compared with other approaches. However, its computation cost is high; it is quadratic in the number of data points.
