As the capacity of Solid-State Drives (SSDs) is constantly being optimised and boosted with gradually reduced cost, the SSD cluster is now widely deployed as part of the hybrid storage system in various scenarios such as cloud computing and…

The idle time of personal computers has increased steadily due to the generalization of computer usage and cloud computing. Clustering research aims at utilizing idle computer resources for processing a variable workload on a large number…

Machine learning has proved to be a useful tool for extracting knowledge from scientific data in numerous research fields, including astrophysics, genomics, and molecular dynamics. Often, data sets from these research areas need to be…

Despite compelling theoretical arguments, the use of clusters as cosmological probes is, in practice, frequently questioned because of the many uncertainties impinging on cluster mass estimates. Our aim is to develop a fully self-consistent…

In many applications of X-ray computed tomography, an unsupervised segmentation of the reconstructed 3D volumes forms an important step in the image processing chain for further investigation of the digitized object. Therefore, the goal is…

Hadoop is an open source implementation of the MapReduce Framework in the realm of distributed processing. A Hadoop cluster is a unique type of computational cluster designed for storing and analyzing large data sets across cluster of…

Hierarchical and k-medoids clustering are deterministic clustering algorithms based on pairwise distances. Using these same pairwise distances, we propose a novel stochastic clustering method based on random partition distributions. We call…

Density Peak Clustering (DPC), a popular density-based clustering approach, has received considerable attention from the research community primarily due to its simplicity and fewer-parameter requirement. However, the resultant clusters…

In this paper we present a method for the unsupervised clustering of high-dimensional binary data, with a special focus on electronic healthcare records. We present a robust and efficient heuristic to face this problem using tensor…

Shortage of labeled data has been holding the surge of deep learning in healthcare back, as sample sizes are often small, patient information cannot be shared openly, and multi-center collaborative studies are a burden to set up.…

In this paper we propose a new approach for Big Data mining and analysis. This new approach works well on distributed datasets and deals with data clustering task of the analysis. The approach consists of two main phases, the first phase…

Usage data of a group of users distributed across a number of categories, such as songs, movies, webpages, links, regular household products, mobile apps, games, etc. can be ultra-high dimensional and massive in size. More often this kind…

Particle physics experiments rely extensively on computing and data services, making e-infrastructure an integral part of the research collaboration. Constructing and operating distributed computing can however be challenging for a…

Motivated by the computational demands of our research and budgetary constraints which are common to many research institutions, we built a ``poor man's supercomputer'', a cluster of PC nodes which together can perform parallel calculations…

We present a novel clustering algorithm, visClust, that is based on lower dimensional data representations and visual interpretation. Thereto, we design a transformation that allows the data to be represented by a binary integer array…

Here we present an in-depth study of the behaviour of the Fast Folding Algorithm, an alternative pulsar searching technique to the Fast Fourier Transform. Weaknesses in the Fast Fourier Transform, including a susceptibility to red noise,…

Often corporations need tools to improve their decision making in a competitive market. In general, these tools are based on data warehouse platforms to mange and analyze large amounts of data. However, several of these corporations do not…

We describe a data format currently in use amongst European institutions for exchanging and archiving pulsar data. The format is designed to be as flexible as possible with regard to present and future compatibility with different operating…

Traditional pulsar surveys have primarily employed time-domain periodicity searches. However, these methods are susceptible to effects like scattering, eclipses and orbital motion. At lower radio frequencies (<= 300 MHz), factors such as…

Clustering has been a major research topic in the field of machine learning, one to which Deep Learning has recently been applied with significant success. However, an aspect of clustering that is not addressed by existing deep clustering…
