Data pre-processing is crucial to ensure that the data is in a suitable format for clustering. It involves steps such as data cleaning, normalization, and dimensionality reduction. Data cleaning eliminates noise
A partitional clustering algorithm obtains a single partition of the data instead of a clustering structure, such as the dendrogram produced by hierarchical methods. Partitional methods have advantages over hierarchical in applications involving large data sets for which the construction of a dendrogram ...
Spatial clustering, which shares an analogy with single-cell clustering, has expanded the scope of tissue physiology studies from cell-centroid to structure-centroid with spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) data. Computational methods have undergone remarkable development in recent years, but a compre...
Clustering, aiming to discover the underlying cluster structure in objects [1,2], forms a significant area in unsupervised learning and plays an indispensable role in pattern recognition [3,4], data mining [5], machine learning [6] and so on. ...
In the era of single-cell sequencing, there is a growing need to extract insights from data with clustering methods. Here, inspired by forest fire dynamics, the authors devise an algorithm that can cluster single-cell data with minimal prior assumptions and can compute a non-parametric posterior...

Each time a D-node sends an E-node a fragment over the wire, it sends it in the same compressed format in which it was stored. The E-node then expands the fragment into a usable data structure. This cache stores the expanded tree instances. For binary documents it holds the raw binary...
Key findings in this review show the size of data as a classification criterion and as data sizes for clustering become larger and varied, the determination of the optimal number of clusters will require new feature extracting methods, validation indices and clustering techniques. In addition, ...
summarizing data structure, window model, outlier detection mechanism, and offline refinement strategy. However, there is a lack of empirical studies on these key design aspects in the same codebase using real-world workloads wi...
Noise in the data can significantly impact the results of clustering and dimensionality reduction techniques. Preprocessing steps may be necessary to handle missing values and outliers. Consistency: Ensure the data is consistent in its format and structure. Inconsistent data may require additional data ...
