BIRCH: A New Data Clustering Algorithm and Its Applications
- Tian Zhang, R. Ramakrishnan, M. Livny
- Computer ScienceData mining and knowledge discovery
- 21 January 1997
An efficient and scalable data clustering method is proposed, based on a new in-memory data structure called CF-tree, which serves as an in- memory summary of the data distribution, and implemented in a system called BIRCH (Balanced Iterative Reducing and Clustering using Hierarchies), and compared with other available methods.
