Apple flower detection and positioning are crucial for the mechanical and chemical thinning of flowers, where typically only one or two of the strongest flowers in each cluster are retained. An improved method is proposed that leverages the YOLOv8n model for accurate flower detection. The DPC algorithm is enhanced to automatically determine the number of flower clusters and accurately identify the central flowers within those clusters. To evaluate the performance of the enhanced Single-Layer DPC algorithm, it was compared with several other clustering methods, including DPC, DPC with Shared Nearest Neighbors (DPC-SNN), K-means, K-medoids, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), density-Based Spatial clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN), Spectral clustering (SC), minibatch and 3W-PEDP. The results demonstrated that the proposed method achieved that the Adjusted Mutual Information (AMI) and Adjusted Rand Index (ARI) were 0.7037 and 0.6043, respectively, on the Flame dataset, surpassing the highest scores obtained by other methods (0.5886 and 0.5116, respectively). Additionally, the improved algorithm reduced the deviation between the clustering center produced by the Single-Layer DPC and the true central flower. Overall, the algorithm effectively reduces clustering center deviations, showcasing its capability to accurately detect and position apple flowers.

Due to the defect of quick search density peak clustering algorithm required an artificial attempt to determine the cut-off distance and circle the clustering centres, density peak clustering algorithm based on choosing strategy automatically for cut-off distance and cluster center (CSA-DP) is proposed. The algorithm introduces the improved idea of determining cut-off distance and clustering centres, according to the approximate distance that maximum density sample point to minimum density sample point and the variation of similarity between the points which may be clustering centres. First, obtaining the sample point density according to the k-nearest neighbour samples and tapping the sample sorting of the distance to the maximum density point;then finding the turning position of density trends and determining the cutoff distance on the basis of the turning position;finally, in view of the density peak clustering algorithm, finding the data points which may be the centres of the cluster, comparing the similarity between them and determining the final clustering centres. The simulation results show that the improved algorithm proposed in this paper can automatically determine the cut-off distance, circle the centres, and make the clustering results become more accurate. In the end, this paper makes an empirical analysis on the stock of 147 bio pharmaceutical listed companies by using the improved algorithm, which provides a reliable basis for the classification and evaluation of listed companies. It has a wide range of applicability.

Purpose The density peak clustering algorithm (DP) is proposed to identify cluster centers by two parameters, i.e. rho value (local density) and delta value (the distance between a point and another point with a higher rho value). According to the center-identifying principle of the DP, the potential cluster centers should have a higher rho value and a higher delta value than other points. However, this principle may limit the DP from identifying some categories with multi-centers or the centers in lower-density regions. In addition, the improper assignment strategy of the DP could cause a wrong assignment result for the non-center points. This paper aims to address the aforementioned issues and improve the clustering performance of the DP. Design/methodology/approach First, to identify as many potential cluster centers as possible, the authors construct a point-domain by introducing the pinhole imaging strategy to extend the searching range of the potential cluster centers. Second, they design different novel calculation methods for calculating the domain distance, point-domain density and domain similarity. Third, they adopt domain similarity to achieve the domain merging process and optimize the final clustering results. Findings The experimental results on analyzing 12 synthetic data sets and 12 real-world data sets show that two-stage densitypeakclustering based on multi-strategy optimization (TMsDP) outperforms the DP and other state-of-the-art algorithms. Originality/value The authors propose a novel DP-based clustering method, i.e. TMsDP, and transform the relationship between points into that between domains to ultimately further optimize the clustering performance of the DP.

Demand response (DR) provides an opportunity for customers to play an important role in the operation of the electricity grid by reducing or shifting their electricity usage during peak periods. However, selecting customers to participate in DR programs is challenging. To solve this problem, typical load profiles should be characterized by data mining techniques such as clusteringalgorithms. Traditional clusteringalgorithms manually determine the centre of clusters and that the selected centre of clusters may fall into a local optimum. Here, to overcome these issues, a new clusteringalgorithm based on the density peak clustering algorithm (DPC) and Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (ABC) which is called A-DPC, is implemented to optimally determine the representative load curves. Moreover, by introducing a new priority index, the eligible residential customers are selected for participating in DR programs. Also, to meet the sufficient load reduction in a DR event, the proposed approach suggests a plenty number of residential customers to be called. The result evidence that A-DPC has a stronger global search ability to optimally select the centre of clusters if compared to other clusteringalgorithms.

This paper describes the ASRGroup team speaker diarization systems submitted to the TRACK 2 of the Fearless Steps Challenge Phase-2. In this system, the similarity matrix among all segments of an audio recording was measured by Sequential Bidirectional Long Short-term Memory Networks (Bi-LSTM), and a clustering scheme based on densitypeak Cluster algorithm (DPCA) was proposed to clustering the segments. The system was compared with the Kaldi Toolkit diarization system (x-vector based on TDNN with PLDA scoring model) and the Spectral system (similarity based on Bi-LSTM with Spectral clusteringalgorithm). Experiments show that our system is significantly outperforms above systems and achieves a Diarization Error Rate (DER) of 42.75% and 39.52% respectively on the Dev dataset and Eval dataset of TRACK 2 (Fearless Steps Challenge Phase-2). Compared with the baseline Kaldi Toolkit diarization system and Spectral clusteringalgorithm with Bi-LSTM similarity models, the DER of our system is absolutely reduced 4.64%, 1.84% and 8.85%, 7.57% respectively on the two datasets.

End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is the final stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and requires hemodialysis (HD) for survival. Intradialytic blood pressure (IBP) measurements are necessary to ensure patient safety during HD treatments and have critical clinical and prognostic significance. Studies on IBP measurements, especially IBP patterns, are limited. All related studies have been based on a priori knowledge and artificially classified IBP patterns. Therefore, the results were influenced by subjective concepts. In this study, we proposed a new approach to identify IBP patterns to classify ESRD patients. We used the dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm to measure the similarity between two series of IBP data. Five blood pressure (BP) patterns were identified by applying the density peak clustering algorithm (DPCA) to the IBP data. To illustrate the association between BP patterns and prognosis, we constructed three random survival forest (RSF) models with different covariates. Model accuracy was improved 3.7-6.3% by the inclusion of BP patterns. The results suggest that BP patterns have critical clinical and prognostic significance regarding the risk of cerebrovascular events. We can also apply this clustering approach to other time series data from electronic health records (EHRs). This work is generalizable to analyses of dense EHR data.
