We present a new algorithm for the widely used density-based clustering method dbscan. For a set of [Formula: see text] points in [Formula: see text] our algorithm computes the dbscan-clustering in [Formula: see text] time, irrespective of the scale parameter [Formula: see text] (and assuming the second parameter MinPts is set to a fixed constant, as is the case in practice). Experiments show that the new algorithm is not only fast in theory, but that a slightly simplified version is competitive in practice and much less sensitive to the choice of [Formula: see text] than the original dbscan algorithm. We also present an [Formula: see text] randomized algorithm for hdbscan in the plane — hdbscan is a hierarchical version of dbscan introduced recently — and we show how to compute an approximate version of hdbscan in near-linear time in any fixed dimension.

Minimum Spanning Tree Problem

Given a weighted graph G(V;E), a minimum spanning tree for G can be obtained in linear time using a randomized algorithm or nearly linear time using a deterministic algorithm. Given n points in the plane, we can construct a graph with these points as nodes and an edge between every pair of nodes. The weight on any edge is the Euclidean distance between the two points. Finding a minimum spanning tree for this graph is known as the Euclidean minimum spanning tree problem (EMSTP). The minimum spanning tree algorithms alluded to before will run in time O(n2) (or nearly O(n2)) on this graph. In this note we point out that it is possible to devise simple algorithms for EMSTP in k- dimensions (for any constant k) whose expected run time is O(n), under the assumption that the points are uniformly distributed in the space of interest.CR Categories: F2.2 Nonnumerical Algorithms and Problems; G.3 Probabilistic Algorithms

Parallel Clustering

Data clustering has been received considerable attention in many applications, such as data mining, document retrieval, image segmentation and pattern classification. The enlarging volumes of information emerging by the progress of technology, makes clustering of very large scale of data a challenging task. In order to deal with the problem, more researchers try to design efficient parallel clustering algorithms. In this paper, we propose a parallel DBSCAN clustering algorithm based on Hadoop, which is a simple yet powerful parallel programming platform. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can scale well and efficiently process large datasets on commodity hardware.

AbstractThe quality of data is an important task in the data mining. The validity of mining algorithms is reduced if data is not of good quality. The quality of data can be assessed in terms of missing values (MV) as well as noise present in the data set. Various imputation techniques have been studied in MV study, but little attention has been given on noise in earlier work. Moreover, to the best of knowledge, no one has used density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) clustering for MV imputation. This paper proposes a novel technique density-based imputation (DBSCANI) built on density-based clustering to deal with incomplete values in the presence of noise. Density-based clustering algorithm proposed by Kriegal groups the objects according to their density in spatial data bases. The high-density regions are known as clusters, and the low-density regions refer to the noise objects in the data set. A lot of experiments have been performed on the Iris data set from life science domain and Jain’s (2D) data set from shape data sets. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using root mean square error (RMSE) as well as it is compared with existing K-means imputation (KMI). Results show that our method is more noise resistant than KMI on data sets used under study.

For a polygon P, the bounded Voronoi diagram of P is a partition of P into regions assigned to the vertices of P. A point p inside P belongs to the region of a vertex v if and only if v is the closest vertex of P visible from p. We present a randomized algorithm that builds the bounded Voronoi diagram of a simple polygon in linear expected time. Among other applications, we can construct within the same time bound the generalized Delaunay triangulation of P and the minimal spanning tree on P’s vertices that is contained in P.

Segmentation Image

Images contain a lot of information that can be used in a variety of areas. One of the images that have much information inside is satellite image. In order to extract the information properly, the image processing step should be performed properly. The segmentation process plays an important role in image processing, especially for feature extraction. Many ways were developed to perform the segmentation image. In this study, we apply DBSCAN clustering to segment images on whirlwind cloud feature extraction problems. DBSCAN is a density-based classifier method which means it is suitable to group a density-based data. While the image used in the segmentation process is the Himawari 8 satellite image which also contains density-based data. It contains various information about clouds condition like cloud type, cloud temperature, cloud humidity, rainfall potential based on cloud temperature, etc. This study uses Himawari 8 satellite images as input where the images taken are images several hours before a wirlwind event in an area, while the cluster method used is the DBSCAN algorithm. Clustering is done to get the extraction features of a wirlwind in the form of centroid points that characterize the movement of a cloud. Segmentation performance was observed based on the number of centroid points as a result of clustering several types of clouds in an area before a wirlwind occurred. Based on segmentation testing using the DBSCAN algorithm for cloud data in an area for several hours before a wirlwind, better segmentation performance was obtained compared to the segmentation results of the Meng hee heng k-means algorithm for the same test data specifications. DBSCAN separates a type of cloud in more detail that makes it easier to record each centroid of each cluster around the scene. It is even able to cluster small groups of clouds independently so that these small groups of clouds can also be detected as features.

One of transportation research topic is detecting trip purpose. Given a collection of GPS mobility records, researchers endeavored to infer useful information such as trip, travel mode, and trip purpose. Obtaining these attributes will help researcher in transportation modelling.  This work proposed an approach in defining a trip or a trip segmentation which is a part of trip purpose problem as well as inferring the trip purpose. By Utilizing Dbscan clustering algorithm, decision tree, and some useful features, we are able to detect the trips and their purposes as well as building the model to automate the trip derivation.
