Computational analysis of incremental clustering approaches for Large Data

2021

Clustering is an approach of data mining, which helps us to find the underlying hidden structure in the dataset. K-means is a clustering method which usages distance functions to find the similarities or dissimilarities between the instances. DBSCAN is a clustering algorithm, which discovers the arbitrary shapes & sizes of clusters from huge volume of using spatial density method. These two approaches of clustering are the classical methods for efficient clustering but underperform when the data is updated frequently in the databases so, the incremental or gradual clustering approaches are always preferred in this environment. In this paper, an incremental approach for clustering is introduced using K-means and DBSCAN to handle the new datasets dynamically updated in the database in an interval.

A Study of Different Partitioning Clustering Technique

In the field of software, Data mining is very useful to identify the interesting patterns and trends from the large amount of stored data into different database and data repository. Clustering technique is basically used to extract the unknown pattern from the large set of data for electronic stored data, business and real time applications. Clustering is a division of data into different groups. Data are grouped into clusters with high intra group similarity and low inter group similarity [2]. Clustering is an unsupervised learning technique. Clustering is useful technique that applied into many areas like marketing studies, DNA analysis, text mining and web documents classification. In the large database, the clustering task is very complex with many attributes. There are many methods to deal with these problems. In this paper we discuss about the different Partitioning Based Methods like- K-Means, K-Medoids and Fuzzy K-Means and compare the advantages or disadvantages over these techniques.

Efficient incremental density-based algorithm for clustering large datasets

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2015

In dynamic information environments such as the web, the amount of information is rapidly increasing. Thus, the need to organize such information in an efficient manner is more important than ever. With such dynamic nature, incremental clustering algorithms are always preferred compared to traditional static algorithms. In this paper, an enhanced version of the incremental DBSCAN algorithm is introduced for incrementally building and updating arbitrary shaped clusters in large datasets. The proposed algorithm enhances the incremental clustering process by limiting the search space to partitions rather than the whole dataset which results in significant improvements in the performance compared to relevant incremental clustering algorithms. Experimental results with datasets of different sizes and dimensions show that the proposed algorithm speeds up the incremental clustering process by factor up to 3.2 compared to existing incremental algorithms.

Comprehensive Study and Analysis of Partitional Data Clustering Techniques

International Journal of Business Analytics, 2015

Data clustering has found significant applications in various domains like bioinformatics, medical data, imaging, marketing study and crime analysis. There are several types of data clustering such as partitional, hierarchical, spectral, density-based, mixture-modeling to name a few. Among these, partitional clustering is well suited for most of the applications due to the less computational requirement. An analysis of various literatures available on partitional clustering will not only provide good knowledge, but will also lead to find the recent problems in partitional clustering domain. Accordingly, it is planned to do a comprehensive study with the literature of partitional data clustering techniques. In this paper, thirty three research articles have been taken for survey from the standard publishers from 2005 to 2013 under two different aspects namely the technical aspect and the application aspect. The technical aspect is further classified based on partitional clustering, c...

A Density Based Dynamic Data Clustering Algorithm based on Incremental Dataset

Journal of Computer Science, 2012

Problem statement: Clustering and visualizing high-dimensional dynamic data is a challenging problem. Most of the existing clustering algorithms are based on the static statistical relationship among data. Dynamic clustering is a mechanism to adopt and discover clusters in real time environments. There are many applications such as incremental data mining in data warehousing applications, sensor network, which relies on dynamic data clustering algorithms. Approach: In this work, we present a density based dynamic data clustering algorithm for clustering incremental dataset and compare its performance with full run of normal DBSCAN, Chameleon on the dynamic dataset. Most of the clustering algorithms perform well and will give ideal performance with good accuracy measured with clustering accuracy, which is calculated using the original class labels and the calculated class labels. However, if we measure the performance with a cluster validation metric, then it will give another kind of result. Results: This study addresses the problems of clustering a dynamic dataset in which the data set is increasing in size over time by adding more and more data. So to evaluate the performance of the algorithms, we used Generalized Dunn Index (GDI), Davies-Bouldin index (DB) as the cluster validation metric and as well as time taken for clustering. Conclusion: In this study, we have successfully implemented and evaluated the proposed density based dynamic clustering algorithm. The performance of the algorithm was compared with Chameleon and DBSCAN clustering algorithms. The proposed algorithm performed significantly well in terms of clustering accuracy as well as speed.

A Fast Incremental Clustering Algorithm

Clustering has played a very important role in data mining. In this paper, a fast incremental clustering algorithm is proposed by changing the radius threshold value dynamically. The algorithm restricts the number of the final clusters and reads the original dataset only once. At the same time an inter-cluster dissimilarity measure taking into account the frequency information of the attribute values is introduced. It can be used for the categorical data. The experimental results on the mushroom dataset show that the proposed algorithm is feasible and effective. It can be used for the large-scale data set.

Performance Comparison of Incremental Kmeans and Incremental DBSCAN Algorithms

International Journal of Computer Applications, 2011

Incremental K-means and DBSCAN are two very important and popular clustering techniques for today"s large dynamic databases (Data warehouses, WWW and so on) where data are changed at random fashion. The performance of the incremental K-means and the incremental DBSCAN are different with each other based on their time analysis characteristics. Both algorithms are efficient compare to their existing algorithms with respect to time, cost and effort. In this paper, the performance evaluation of incremental DBSCAN clustering algorithm is implemented and most importantly it is compared with the performance of incremental K-means clustering algorithm and it also explains the characteristics of these two algorithms based on the changes of the data in the database. This paper also explains some logical differences between these two most popular clustering algorithms. This paper uses an air pollution database as original database on which the experiment is performed.
