Clustering as an essential technique has matured into a capable solution to address the gap between the growing availability of data and deriving the knowledge from them. In this paper, we propose a novel clustering method “variational learning of infinite multivariate Beta mixture models.” The motivation behind proposing this technique is the flexibility of mixture models to fit the data. This approach has the capability to infer the model complexity and estimate model parameters from the observed data automatically. Moreover, as a label‐free method, it could also address the problem of high costs of medical data labeling, which can be undertaken just by medical experts. The performance of the model is evaluated on real medical applications and compared with other similar alternatives. We demonstrate the ability of our proposed method to outperform widely used methods in the field as it has been shown in experimental results.
