Abstract: As a common analysis method, cluster analysis is widely used in various scenarios. With the development of machine learning technology, deep clustering algorithm has also become a hot research topic, and the deep clustering algorithm based on autoencoder is one of the representative algorithms. To keep abreast of the development of deep clustering algorithms based on autoencoders, four models of autoencoders are introduced, and the representative algorithms in recent years are classified according to the structure of autoencoders. For the traditional clustering algorithm and the deep clustering algorithm based on autoencoder, experiments are compared and analyzed on the MNIST, USPS, Fashion-MNIST datasets. At last, the current problems of deep clustering algorithms based on autoencoders are summarized, and the possible research directions of deep clustering algorithms are prospected.
