In the multi-target traffic radar scene, the clustering accuracy between vehicles with close driving distance is relatively low. In response to this problem, this paper proposes a new clustering algorithm, namely an adaptive ellipse distance density peak fuzzy (AEDDPF) clustering algorithm. Firstly, the Euclidean distance is replaced by adaptive ellipse distance, which can more accurately describe the structure of data obtained by radar measurement vehicles. Secondly, the adaptive exponential function curve is introduced in the decision graph of the fast density peak search algorithm to accurately select the density peak point, and the initialization of the AEDDPF algorithm is completed. Finally, the membership matrix and the clustering center are calculated through successive iterations to obtain the clustering result.The time complexity of the AEDDPF algorithm is analyzed. Compared with the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN), k-means, fuzzy c-means (FCM), Gustafson-Kessel (GK), and adaptive Euclidean distance density peak fuzzy (Euclid-ADDPF) algorithms, the AEDDPF algorithm has higher clustering accuracy for real measurement data sets in certain scenarios. The experimental results also prove that the proposed algorithm has a better clustering effect in some close-range vehicle scene applications. The generalization ability of the proposed AEDDPF algorithm applied to other types of data is also analyzed.
