Abstract:In this paper, we propose a fully autonomous density-based clustering algorithm named ‘Ocean’, which is inspired by the oceanic landscape and phenomena that occur in it. Ocean is an improvement over conventional algorithms regarding both distance metric and the clustering mechanism. Ocean defines the distance between two categories as the difference in the relative densities of categories. Unlike existing approaches, Ocean neither assigns the same distance to all pairs of categories, nor assigns arbitrary weig… Show more
