Abstract

Extracting useful knowledge from numerous distributed data repositories can be a very hard task when such data cannot be directly centralized or unified as a single file or database. This paper suggests practical distributed clustering algorithms without accessing the raw data to overcome the inefficiency of centralized data clustering methods. The aim of this research is to generate unit volume based probabilistic mixture model from local clustering results without moving original data. It has been shown that our method is appropriate for distributed clustering when real data cannot be accessed or centralized.
