We present a non-hierarchal clustering algorithm that can determine the optimal number of clusters by using iterations of k-means and a stopping rule based on BIC. The procedure requires twice the computation of k-means. However, with no prior information about the number of clusters, our method is able to get the optimal clusters based on information theory instead of on a heuristic method.
