| Abstract | Density-based and grid-based clustering are two main clustering approaches. The former is famous for its capability of discovering clusters of various shapes and eliminating noises, while the latter is well known for its high speed. Combination of the two approaches seems to provide better clustering results. To the best of our knowledge, however, all existing algorithms that combine density-based clustering and grid-based clustering take cells as atomic units, in the sense that either all objects in a cell belong to a cluster or no object in the cell belong to any cluster. This requires the cells to be small enough to ensure the fine resolution of results. In high-dimensional spaces, however, the number of cells can be very large when cells are small, which would make the clustering process extremely costly. On the other hand, the number of neighbors of a cell grows exponentially with the dimensionality of datasets, which makes the complexity increase further. In this paper, we present a new approach that takes objects (or points) as the atomic units, so that the restriction of cell size can be relaxed without degrading the resolution of clustering results. In addition, a concept of ith-order neighbors is introduced to avoid considering the exponential number of neighboring cells. By considering only low-order neighbors, our algorithm is very efficient while losing only a little bit of accuracy. Experiments on synthetic and public data show that our algorithm can cluster high-dimensional data effectively and efficiently. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
