The $k$-means algorithm is a very prevalent clustering method because of its simplicity, effectiveness, and speed, but its main disadvantage is its high sensitivity to the initial positions of the cluster centers. The global $k$-means is a deterministic algorithm proposed to tackle the random initialization problem of k-means but requires high computational cost. It partitions the data to $K$ clusters by solving all $k$-means sub-problems incrementally for $k=1,\ldots, K$. For each $k$ cluster problem, the method executes the $k$-means algorithm $N$ times, where $N$ is the number of data points. In this paper, we propose the global $k$-means$++$ clustering algorithm, which is an effective way of acquiring quality clustering solutions akin to those of global $k$-means with a reduced computational load. This is achieved by exploiting the center section probability that is used in the effective $k$-means$++$ algorithm. The proposed method has been tested and compared in various well-known real and synthetic datasets yielding very satisfactory results in terms of clustering quality and execution speed.
