gSOM - a new gravitational clustering algorithm based on the self
... G = (1 − ΔG) · G. When two points are close enough, i.e. ||d|| is lower than parameter α, they are merged into a single point with mass equal to 1, which is rather strange, but doing so, clusters with greater density do not affect ones with smaller density. The experiments presented in the Section 3 ...

Nearest-neighbor chain algorithm

In the theory of cluster analysis, the nearest-neighbor chain algorithm is a method that can be used to perform several types of agglomerative hierarchical clustering, using an amount of memory that is linear in the number of points to be clustered and an amount of time linear in the number of distinct distances between pairs of points. The main idea of the algorithm is to find pairs of clusters to merge by following paths in the nearest neighbor graph of the clusters until the paths terminate in pairs of mutual nearest neighbors. The algorithm was developed and implemented in 1982 by J. P. Benzécri and J. Juan, based on earlier methods that constructed hierarchical clusterings using mutual nearest neighbor pairs without taking advantage of nearest neighbor chains.
