Abstract

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.
