Low-Noise Density Clustering

چکیده
We study density-based clustering under low-noise conditions. Our framework allows for sharply defined clusters such as clusters on lower dimensional manifolds. We show that accurate clustering is possible even in high dimensions. We propose two data-based methods for choosing the bandwidth and we study the stability properties of density clusters. We show that a simple graph-based algorithm known as the “friends-of-friends” algorithm successfully approximates the high density clusters.

Assessment of the Performance of Clustering Algorithms in the Extraction of Similar Trajectories
In recent years, the tremendous and increasing growth of spatial trajectory data and the necessity of processing and extraction of useful information and meaningful patterns have led to the fact that many researchers have been attracted to the field of spatio-temporal trajectory clustering. The process and analysis of these trajectories have resulted in the extraction of useful information whic...
متن کاملA New Shared Nearest Neighbor Clustering Algorithm and its Applications
Clustering depends critically on density and distance (similarity), but these concepts become increasingly more difficult to define as dimensionality increases. In this paper we offer definitions of density and similarity that work well for high dimensional data (actually, for data of any dimensionality). In particular, we use a similarity measure that is based on the number of neighbors that t...

Clustering is an important knowledge discovery technique in the database. Density-based clustering algorithms are one of the main methods for clustering in data mining. These algorithms have some special features including being independent from the shape of the clusters, highly understandable and ease of use. DBSCAN is a base algorithm for density-based clustering algorithms. DBSCAN is able to...
متن کاملBilateral Weighted Fuzzy C-Means Clustering
Nowadays, the Fuzzy C-Means method has become one of the most popular clustering methods based on minimization of a criterion function. However, the performance of this clustering algorithm may be significantly degraded in the presence of noise. This paper presents a robust clustering algorithm called Bilateral Weighted Fuzzy CMeans (BWFCM). We used a new objective function that uses some k...
متن کاملRisk Bounds For Mode Clustering
Density mode clustering is a nonparametric clustering method. The clusters are the basins of attraction of the modes of a density estimator. We study the risk of mode-based clustering. We show that the clustering risk over the cluster cores — the regions where the density is high — is very small even in high dimensions. And under a low noise condition, the overall cluster risk is small even bey...
