Research Type Theoretical Given a set of n points in Rd, the goal of Euclidean (k, ℓ)-clustering is to find k centers that minimize the sum of the ℓ-th powers of the Euclidean distance of each point to the closest center. ... We first show that a popular algorithm k-MEANS++ and its variant called Dℓ-SAMPLING have low average sensitivity. Next, we show that any approximation algorithm for Euclidean (k, ℓ)-clustering can be transformed to an algorithm with low average sensitivity while almost preserving the approximation guarantee. As byproducts of our results, we provide several algorithms for consistent (k, ℓ)-clustering and dynamic (k, ℓ)-clustering in the random-order model...
