Circular Clustering With Polar Coordinate Reconstruction
Xiaoxiao Sun,

Abstract:There is a growing interest in characterizing circular data found in biological systems. Such data are wide-ranging and varied, from the signal phase in neural recordings to nucleotide sequences in round genomes. Traditional clustering algorithms are often inadequate due to their limited ability to distinguish differences in the periodic component θ. Current clustering schemes for polar coordinate systems have limitations, such as being only angle-focused or lacking generality. To overcome these limitations, w… Show more
