We present AstroLink, an efficient and versatile clustering algorithm designed to hierarchically classify astrophysically-relevant structures from both synthetic and observational data sets. We build upon CluSTAR-ND, a hierarchical…
We build upon Ordering Points To Identify Clustering Structure (OPTICS), a hierarchical clustering algorithm well-known to be a robust data-miner, in order to produce Halo-OPTICS, an algorithm designed for the automatic detection and…
We present a new algorithm for identifying dark matter halos, substructure, and tidal features. The approach is based on adaptive hierarchical refinement of friends-of-friends groups in six phase-space dimensions and one time dimension,…
Cosmological N-body simulations are crucial for understanding how the Universe evolves. Studying large-scale distributions of matter in these simulations and comparing them to observations usually involves detecting dense clusters of…
Aims: Develop a data-driven and statistically based method for finding such clumps in Integrals of Motion space for nearby halo stars and evaluating their significance robustly. Methods: We use data from Gaia EDR3 extended with radial…
A direct approach to studying the galaxy-halo connection is to analyze groups and clusters of galaxies that trace the underlying dark matter halos, emphasizing the importance of identifying galaxy clusters and their associated brightest…
We describe an extension of the halo-based galaxy group-finding algorithm. We add freedom to the algorithm in order to more accurately determine which galaxies are central and which are satellites, and to provide unbiased estimates of halo…
We outline here the next generation of cluster-finding algorithms. We show how advances in Computer Science and Statistics have helped develop robust, fast algorithms for finding clusters of galaxies in large multi-dimensional astronomical…
Clustering and visualizing high-dimensional (HD) data are important tasks in a variety of fields. For example, in bioinformatics, they are crucial for analyses of single-cell data such as mass cytometry (CyTOF) data. Some of the most…
We present an innovative and widely applicable approach for the detection and classification of stellar clusters, developed for the PHANGS-HST Treasury Program, an $NUV$-to-$I$ band imaging campaign of 38 spiral galaxies. Our pipeline first…
We study structural clustering on graphs in dynamic scenarios, where the graphs can be updated by arbitrary insertions or deletions of edges/vertices. The goal is to efficiently compute structural clustering results for any clustering…
Hierarchical clustering is a common algorithm in data analysis. It is unique among many clustering algorithms in that it draws dendrograms based on the distance of data under a certain metric, and group them. It is widely used in all areas…
We present a deep-learning-based approach for identifying dark matter haloes in cosmological N-body simulations. Our framework consists of a volumetric Convolutional Neural Network to classify individual simulation particles as either halo…
We present a new cluster detection algorithm designed for the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS) survey but with generic application to any multiband data. The method makes no prior assumptions about the…
We develop the Blooming Tree Algorithm, a new technique that uses spectroscopic redshift data alone to identify the substructures and the surrounding groups of galaxy clusters, along with their member galaxies. Based on the estimated…
I review here past and present research on clusters and groups of galaxies within the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). In particular, I discuss the C4 algorithm which is designed to search for clusters within a 7-dimensional data-space,…
We propose a new hierarchical method which uses dynamical arguments to find and describe substructures in galaxy clusters. This method (hereafter h--method or h--analysis) uses a hierarchical clustering analysis to determine the…
Small- and intermediate-scale galaxy clustering can be used to establish the galaxy-halo connection to study galaxy formation and evolution and to tighten constraints on cosmological parameters. With the increasing precision of galaxy…
Clustering is one of the major tasks in data mining. In the last few years, Clustering of spatial data has received a lot of research attention. Spatial databases are components of many advanced information systems like geographic…
The spatial distribution of massive and luminous galaxies have provided important constraints on the fundamental cosmological parameters and physical processes governing galaxy formation. In this work, we construct and compare independent…
