Abstract

Clustering is an important technique to deal with large scale data which are explosively created in internet. Most data are high-dimensional with a lot of noise, which brings great challenges to retrieval, classification and understanding. No current existing approach is “optimal” for large scale data. For example, DBSCAN requires O(n2) time, Fast-DBSCAN only works well in 2 dimensions, and ρ-Approximate DBSCAN runs in O(n) expected time which needs dimension D to be a relative small constant for the linear running time to hold. However, we prove theoretically and experimentally that ρ-Approximate DBSCAN degenerates to an O(n2) algorithm in very high dimension such that 2D >  > n. In this paper, we propose a novel local neighborhood searching technique, and apply it to improve DBSCAN, named as NQ-DBSCAN, such that a large number of unnecessary distance computations can be effectively reduced. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that NQ-DBSCAN averagely runs in O(n*log(n)) with the help of indexing technique, and the best case is O(n) if proper parameters are used, which makes it suitable for many realtime data.
