Raheleh Biglari, Alireza Bagheri . PPreDeCon: A Parallel version of Preference Density Connected Clustering Algorithm. International Journal of Computer Applications. 107, 1 ( December 2014), 22-26. DOI=10.5120/18715-9934
Clustering is one of the major techniques in data mining. PreDeCon is a density-based clustering algorithm for computing clusters of spatial objects. In this paper, PPreDeCon is presented as a parallel version of this algorithm in shared memory model. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show that PPreDeCon offers nearly linear speedup while keeps other advantages of PreDeCon.
