Abstract: Clustering is a popular technique for data mining, knowledge discovery and visual analytics. Unfortunately, cluster assignments can be difficult to interpret by a human analyst. This difficulty has often been overcome by using decision trees to explain cluster assignments. The success of this approach is however subject to the legibility of the obtained decision trees. In this work, we propose an evolutionary algorithm to cleverly preprocess the data before clustering in order to obtain clusters that are simpler to interpret with decision trees. A prototype has been implemented and tested to show the benefits of the approach.
