The Baire metric induces an ultrametric on a dataset and is of linear computational complexity, contrasted with the standard quadratic time agglomerative hierarchical clustering algorithm. In this work we evaluate empirically this new approach to hierarchical clustering. We compare hierarchical clustering based on the Baire metric with (i) agglomerative hierarchical clustering, in terms of algorithm properties; (ii) generalized ultrametrics, in terms of definition; and (iii) fast clustering through k-means partitioning, in terms of quality of results. For the latter, we carry out an in depth astronomical study. We apply the Baire distance to spectrometric and photometric redshifts from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using, in this work, about half a million astronomical objects. We want to know how well the (more costly to determine) spectrometric redshifts can predict the (more easily obtained) photometric redshifts, i.e. we seek to regress the spectrometric on the photometric redshifts, and we use clusterwise regression for this. 相似文献

The Kohonen self-organizing map method: An assessment 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The “self-organizing map” method, due to Kohonen, is a well-known neural network method. It is closely related to cluster
analysis (partitioning) and other methods of data analysis. In this article, we explore some of these close relationships.
A number of properties of the technique are discussed. Comparisons with various methods of data analysis (principal components
analysis, k-means clustering, and others) are presented.

We discuss the use of orthogonal wavelet transforms in preprocessing multivariate data for subsequent analysis, e.g., by
clustering the dimensionality reduction. Wavelet transforms allow us to introduce multiresolution approximation, and multiscale
nonparametric regression or smoothing, in a natural and integrated way into the data analysis. As will be explained in the
first part of the paper, this approach is of greatest interest for multivariate data analysis when we use (i) datasets with
ordered variables, e.g., time series, and (ii) object dimensionalities which are not too small, e.g., 16 and upwards. In
the second part of the paper, a different type of wavelet decomposition is used. Applications illustrate the powerfulness
of this new perspective on data analysis. 相似文献

We describe a new wavelet transform, for use on hierarchies or binary rooted trees. The theoretical framework of this approach
to data analysis is described. Case studies are used to further exemplify this approach. A first set of application studies
deals with data array smoothing, or filtering. A second set of application studies relates to hierarchical tree condensation.
Finally, a third study explores the wavelet decomposition, and the reproducibility of data sets such as text, including a
new perspective on the generation or computability of such data objects. 相似文献
