Self-adaption grey DBSCAN clustering
Clustering analysis, a classical issue in data mining, is widely used in various research areas. This article aims at proposing a self-adaption grey DBSCAN clustering (SAG-DBSCAN) algorithm. First, the grey relational matrix is used to obtain the grey local density indicator, and then this indicator is applied to make self-adapting noise identification for obtaining a dense subset of clustering dataset, finally, the DBSCAN which automatically selects parameters is utilized to cluster the dense subset. Several frequently-used datasets were used to demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed clustering algorithm and to compare the results with those of other state-of-the-art algorithms. The comprehensive comparisons indicate that our method has advantages over other compared methods.
