Summary: | Spatial cluster analysis is an important data mining task. Typical
techniques include CLARANS, density- and gravity-based clustering,
and other algorithms based on traditional von Neumann's computing
architecture. The purpose of this paper is to propose a technique
for spatial cluster analysis based on sticker systems of DNA
computing. We will adopt the Bin-Packing Problem idea and then
design algorithms of sticker programming. The proposed technique
has a better time complexity. In the case when only the
intracluster dissimilarity is taken into account, this time
complexity is polynomial in the amount of data points, which
reduces the NP-completeness nature of spatial cluster analysis.
The new technique provides an alternative method for traditional
cluster analysis. |
