Dynamic graph-based label propagation for density peaks clustering

作者:

Highlights:

• A novel dynamic density peaks clustering method called DPC-DLP is proposed.

• The idea of k-nearest neighbors is used to compute the cut-off and local density of points.

• A graph-based label propagation mechanism to distribute labels and form final clusters.

• DPC_DLP can effectively assign true labels to border points located in overlapped regions.

• The results of experiments reveal the effectiveness of the proposed method.
