Title: Clustering Relationships in High-Dimensional Data

Abstract:

In this paper, we propose a model-based clustering technique for describing different relationships among high-dimensional data. The relationship clustering is different from traditional clustering methods such as k-means which use certain distance metrics to group data points. The new method deploys a relationship model (linear) with various distribution assumptions to group data points with similar relationships among the high-dimension attributes. A simple example is shown to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
