DBSCAN_method

Description

Outlier detection method using DBSCAN

Usage

DBSCAN_method(inputData, max_distance_threshold, min_pts, tutorialMode)

Arguments

inputData

Input Data (must be a data.frame)

max_distance_threshold

This is used to calculate the distance between all the points and check if the euclidean distance is less than the max_distance_threshold parameter to decide if add it to the neighbors or not

min_pts

the minimum number of points to form a dense region

tutorialMode

if TRUE the tutorial mode is activated (the algorithm will include an explanation detailing the theory behind the outlier detection algorithm and a step by step explanation of how is the data processed to obtain the outliers following the theory mentioned earlier)

Value

None, does not return any value

Examples

inputData = t(matrix(c(3,2,3.5,12,4.7,4.1,5.2,
4.9,7.1,6.1,6.2,5.2,14,5.3),2,7,dimnames=list(c("r","d"))));
inputData = data.frame(inputData);
eps = 4;
min_pts = 3;
DBSCAN_method(inputData, eps, min_pts, FALSE); #Can be set to TRUE
