A New Clustering Algorithm Based on Regions of Influence with Self-Detection of the Best Number of Clusters
Clustering methods usually require to know the best number of clusters, or another parameter, e.g. a threshold, which is not ever easy to provide. This paper proposes a new graph-b...

Assessment and pruning of hierarchical model based clustering
The goal of clustering is to identify distinct groups in a dataset. The basic idea of model-based clustering is to approximate the data density by a mixture model, typically a mix...
