DBSCAN
Cluster – maximal set of density connected points
 Grows regions with sufficiently high density into
clusters
 e-neighborhood
 MinPts and Core object
 Directly Density Reachable
An object p is directly density reachable from object q if
p is within the e-neighborhood of q and q is a core
Object
DBSCAN
 Density Reachable
 An object p is density
reachable from q, if there
is
 a chain of objects p1,
…pn, p1=q and pn=p
such that
 pi+1 is directly density
reachable from pi
Continue…..
 Density Connected:
An object p is density
connected to object q if
there is an object o such
that both p and q are
density reachable from o.
Conti…..
Arbitrarily select a point p
 Retrieve all points density-reachable from p
 If p is a core point, a cluster is formed.
 If p is a border point, no points are density-reachable
from p, then DBSCAN visits the next point of the
database.
 Continue the process until all of the points have been
processed.
 Complexity : O(n log n) / O(n2)
OPTICS: A Cluster-OrderingMethod
 OPTICS: Ordering Points To Identify the Clustering
Structure
 Produces a special order of the database with respect
to its density-based clustering structure
 Good for both automatic and interactive cluster
analysis, including finding intrinsic clustering structure
 Can be represented graphically or using visualization
techniques
OPTICS
In DBSCAN, for a constant MinPts value, density based
clusters with respect to a higher density (lower value of
e) are completely contained in lower density sets.
 DBSCAN is extended so that Objects are processed in a
specific order.
 Selects an object that is density-reachable with respect to
loweste value
 Core distance of an object p : smallest e’ value that makes
{p} a
core object
 Reachability distance of an object q with respect to p = max
(core-distance of p, d(p,q))8
