The proposed cluster validity index, designed for fuzzy clusters generated by the fuzzy c-means algorithm, utilizes inter-cluster proximity to measure the degree of overlap between clusters. This metric is calculated by minimizing the proximity value with respect to the number of clusters (c). The resulting index helps identify the optimal fuzzy partition. To demonstrate its effectiveness, the proposed method was tested on well-known datasets.

A new way has been found to check how well clusters group similar things together. It uses a special measure that looks at how close or far apart different groups are. When this distance is small, it means the groups are clear and easy to tell apart. The goal is to find the best grouping by making this distance as small as possible. This method was tried on some famous datasets and showed promising results.
