Abstract

The MSRD (Most Similar Relation Diagram) of a dataset is a weighted undirected graph constructed from an initial dataset. In the MSRD, each datum represented by a vertex, is connected with its MSD (Most Similar Data), and each MSRG (Most Similar Relation Group), represented by a sub-graph, is connected with its MSG (most similar group)through connecting the most similar pairs of data between the two sub-graph. The clustering algorithm based on the MSRD involves two stages: constructing the MSRD of the dataset and cutting the diagram into sub-graphs (clusters). In this paper, we developed a package of methods for the later stage and applied them to some synthesized and real datasets. The performance verified the validity of these methods and demonstrated that the MSRD based clustering is a universal and rich algorithm.
