HPCluster

 
This modified hyper plane clustering algorithm (HPCluster) works in two stages: (1)Reduction of the dataset using cluster features and (2) Conventional k-means clustering on the cluster features obtained in stage-1. The first stage of the algorithm is derived from the Balanced Iterative Reducing and Clustering using Hierarchies (BIRCH) algorithm proposed by Zhang et al (Zhang et al., 1996) BIRCH summarizes a dataset into a set of cluster features (subclus-ters) to reduce the scale of the clustering problem. Dense data points that are extremely close to each other are treated collectively as a single cluster feature and not individually.
