چکیده

In this work we propose an extension of the DBSCAN algorithm to generate clusters with fuzzy density characteristics. The original version of DBSCAN requires two parameters (minPts and ) to determine if a point lies in a dense area or not. Merging different dense areas results into clusters that fit the underlined dataset densities. In this approach, a single density threshold is employed for all the datasets of points while the distinct or the same set of points can exhibit different densities. In order to deal with this issue, we propose Approx Fuzzy Core DBSCAN that applies a soft constraint to model different densities, thus relaxing the rigid assumption used in the original algorithm. The proposal is compared with the classic DBSCAN. Some results are discussed on synthetic data.

A Hybrid Framework using Fuzzy if-then rules for DBSCAN Algorithm

DBSCAN is a density-based clustering algorithm. This algorithm clusters data of high density. For finding core objects traditional DBSCAN uses this core object as center core which extends outwards continuously. As core objects are growing, the unprocessed objects which are retained in memory, will occupy a lot of memory and I/O overhead which tends to low efficiency of algorithm. A data mining...

An Improved Initialization Method For Fuzzy C-Means Clustering Using Density Based Approach For Microarray Data

An improved initialization method for fuzzy cmeans (FCM) method is proposed which aims at solving the two important issues of clustering performance affected by initial cluster centers and number of clusters. A density based approach is needed to identify the closeness of the data points and to extract cluster center. DBSCAN approach defines ε–neighborhood of a point to determine the core objec...

Improvement of density-based clustering algorithm using modifying the density definitions and input parameter

Clustering is one of the main tasks in data mining, which means grouping similar samples. In general, there is a wide variety of clustering algorithms. One of these categories is density-based clustering. Various algorithms have been proposed for this method; one of the most widely used algorithms called DBSCAN. DBSCAN can identify clusters of different shapes in the dataset and automatically i...
