New adaptive mean shift algorithm estimates local cluster cardinality

Researchers have developed a novel adaptive mean shift algorithm that estimates local cluster cardinality by analyzing a point's distance distribution. This method dynamically sets parameters like bandwidth and kernel radius based on the local cluster's density, making it scale-invariant and local in its processing. The algorithm demonstrates competitive performance against existing adaptive mean shift techniques, achieving higher Rand indices on several datasets without requiring prior knowledge of the number of clusters.

    Local Cluster Cardinality Estimation for Adaptive Mean Shift

    arXiv:2508.12450v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This article presents an adaptive mean shift algorithm in which every parameter used at a point is derived from that point's own distance distribution. The distance distribution from a point to all others is used to estimate the…
