arXiv:2606.05230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Selecting a clustering algorithm and its hyperparameters without labels is a common difficulty in engineering machine learning pipelines that work with unsupervised analysis of sensor, image, or process data. Clustering validation indices (CVIs) provide internal scores for ranking candidate clusterings, but most popular CVIs are built from Euclidean compactness and separation terms and so tend to favour compact, convex partitions. Their performance is known to degrade on non convex, irregular, or variable density data, where kernel transformati
