Summary: Add density-based clustering algorithms to mahout
Key: MAHOUT-1206
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1206
Project: Mahout
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Yexi
The clustering algorithms (kmeans, fuzzy kmeans, dirichlet clustering, and
spectral cluster) clustering data by assuming that the data can be clustered
into the regular hyper sphere or ellipsoid. However, in practical, not all the
data can be clustered in this way.
To enable the data to be clustered in arbitrary shapes, clustering algorithms
like DBSCAN, BIRCH, CLARANCE
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_analysis#Density-based_clustering) are
proposed.
It is better that we can implement one or some of these clustering algorithm to
enrich the clustering library.
