The density peak clustering (DPC) algorithm is designed to quickly identify intricate-shaped clusters with high dimensionality by finding high-density peaks in a non-iterative manner and using only one threshold parameter. However, DPC has certain limitations in processing low-density data points because it only takes the global data density distribution into account. As such, DPC may confine in forming low-density data clusters, or in other words, DPC may fail in detecting anomalies and borderline points. In this paper, we analyze the limitations of DPC and propose a novel density peak clustering algorithm to better handle low-density clustering tasks. Specifically, our algorithm …

In academic institutions it is normal practice that at the end of each term,students are required to complete a questionnaire that is designed to gather students’perceptions of the instructor and their learning experience in the course. This questionnaire comprises of Likert-scale questions and qualitative questions.One of the important goals of this exercise is to enable the instructor and the senior management to examine the feedback and then enhance students’ learning experience. In most universities, including our own, a lot of attention is paid to the quantitative feedback, which is summarized and statistical comparisons are computed, analysed and presented. However, the …
