Abstract

The authors have proposed volume prototypes as a compact expression of a huge data or a data stream, along with a one-pass algorithm to find them. A reasonable number of volume prototypes can be used, instead of an enormous number of data, for many applications including classification, clustering and density estimation. In this paper, two algorithms using volume prototypes, called VKM and VEM, are introduced for clustering and density estimation. Compared with the other algorithms for such a huge data, we showed that our algorithms were advantageous in speed of processing, while keeping the same degree of performance, and that both applications were available from the same set of volume prototypes.
