Introduction to Clustering
• How would
you design an
algorithm for
finding the
three clusters
in this case?
Core — This is a point that has at least m points within distance n from itself.
Border — This is a point that has at least one Core point at a distance n.
Noise — This is a point that is neither a Core nor a Border. And it has less
than m points within distance n from itself.

DB Scan Clustering
• Algorithmic steps for DBSCAN clustering
• The algorithm proceeds by arbitrarily picking up a
point in the dataset (until all points have been
visited).
• If there are at least ‘minPoint’ points within a radius
of ‘ε’ to the point then we consider all these points
to be part of the same cluster.
• The clusters are then expanded by recursively
repeating the neighborhood calculation for each
neighboring point
