Expand description

OPTICS (Ordering Points To Identify Clustering Structure) is a clustering algorithm that doesn’t explicitly cluster the data but instead creates an “augmented ordering” of the dataset representing it’s density-based clustering structure. This ordering contains information which is equivalent to the density-based clusterings and can then be used for automatic and interactive cluster analysis.

OPTICS cluster analysis can be used to derive clusters equivalent to the output of other clustering algorithms such as DBSCAN. However, due to it’s more complicated neighborhood queries it typically has a higher computational cost than other more specific algorithms.

More details on the OPTICS algorithm can be found here

Implementations

Configures the hyperparameters with the minimum number of points required to form a cluster

Defaults are provided if the optional parameters are not specified:

  • tolerance = f64::MAX
  • dist_fn = L2Dist (Euclidean distance)
  • nn_algo = KdTree

Configures the hyperparameters with the minimum number of points, a custom distance metric, and a custom nearest neighbour algorithm
