At the request of the Journal Editor and Sage Publishing, the following article has been retracted:

Subedi B, Alsadoon A, Prasad P, Alsadoon OH, Haddad S, Alrubaie A. A novel optimized initial cluster center and enhanced objective function: Medical diagnosis through classification. Health Informatics Journal. 2020;26(1):539-562. doi:10.1177/1460458219839629

After an internal investigation Sage became aware that the peer-review process for this article has been compromised and contains indicators of third-party involvement.

As this was accepted because of a peer-review process that did not meet Sage’s expectations of high quality and ethical peer-review, the publisher cannot uphold the integrity of the research. In line with COPE guidelines and Sage policies, this article has been retracted.

The authors did not respond for comment.
