density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise - 具有噪声的基于密度的聚类方法
Density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) is a data clustering algorithm proposed by Martin Ester, Hans-Peter Kriegel, Jörg Sander and Xiaowei Xu in 1996. It is a density-based clustering algorithm: given a set of points in some space, it groups together points that are closely packed together (points with many nearby neighbors), marking as outliers points that lie alone in low-density regions (whose nearest neighbors are too far away).
DBSCAN 将簇定义为密度相连的点的最大集合,能够把具有足够高密度的区域划分为簇,并可在噪声的空间数据库中发现任意形状的聚类。
