Although geometrically scattered in a geometrical domain, spatial objects may be similar to each other in a non-geometrical domain. Most existing clustering algorithms group spatial datasets into different compact regions in a geometrical domain without considering the aspect of a non-geometrical domain. However, many application scenarios require clustering results in which a cluster has not only high proximity in a geometrical domain, but also high similarity in a non-geometrical domain. This means constraints are imposed on the clustering goal from both geometrical and non-geometrical domains simultaneously. Such a clustering problem is called dual clustering. As distributed clustering applications become more and more popular, it is necessary to tackle the dual clustering problem in distributed databases. The DCAD algorithm is proposed to solve this problem. DCAD consists of two levels of clustering： local clustering and global clustering. First, clustering is conducted at each local site with a local clustering algorithm, and the features of local clusters are extracted clustering is obtained based on those features fective and efficient. Second, local features from each site are sent to a central site where global Experiments on both artificial and real spatial datasets show that DCAD is effective and efficient.展开更多

Unlike most of the current knowledge discovery methods, the comprehensive knowledge discovery considers both the spatial relations and attributes of spatial entities or objects. We introduce the theory of spatial knowledge expression system and some concepts including comprehensive knowledge discovery and spatial union information table (SUIT). In theory, SUIT records all information contained in the studied objects, but in reality, because of the complexity and varieties of spatial relations, only those factors of interest to us are selected. In order to find out the comprehensive knowledge from spatial databases, an efficient comprehensive knowledge discovery algorithm called recycled algorithm (RAR) is suggested.展开更多

The boundaries of different classes of these data are blur and unobvious. When these data are clustered or classified, we often get the coverings instead of the partitions, and it usually makes our information system insecure. In this paper, optimal partitioning of incomplete data is researched. Firstly, the relationship of set cover and set partition is discussed, and the distance between set cover and set partition is defined. Secondly, the optimal partitioning of given cover is researched by the combing and parting method, acquiring the optimal partition from three different partitions set family is discussed. Finally, the corresponding optimal algorithm is given. The real wireless signals offten contain a lot of noise, and there are many errors in boundaries when these data is clustered based on the tradional method. In our experimant, the proposed method improves correct rate greatly, and the experimental results demonstrate the method's validity.展开更多
