Robin Anil updated MAHOUT-1206: ------------------------------- Fix Version/s: Backlog > 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 Jiang > Labels: clustering > Fix For: Backlog > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
