• Abstract summary: Density-based clustering methods by mode-seeking usually achieve clustering by using local density estimation to mine structural information. We propose a new algorithm (TANGO) to establish local dependencies by exploiting a global-view emphtypicality of points. It achieves final clustering by employing graph-cut on sub-clusters, thus avoiding the challenging selection of cluster centers.

• Abstract: Density-based clustering methods by mode-seeking usually achieve clustering by using local density estimation to mine structural information, such as local dependencies from lower density points to higher neighbors. However, they often rely too heavily on \emph{local} structures and neglect \emph{global} characteristics, which can lead to significant errors in peak selection and dependency establishment. Although introducing more hyperparameters that revise dependencies can help mitigate this issue, tuning them is challenging and even impossible on real-world datasets. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm (TANGO) to establish local dependencies by exploiting a global-view \emph{typicality} of points, which is obtained by mining further the density distributions and initial dependencies. TANGO then obtains sub-clusters with the help of the adjusted dependencies, and characterizes the similarity between sub-clusters by incorporating path-based connectivity. It achieves final clustering by employing graph-cut on sub-clusters, thus avoiding the challenging selection of cluster centers. Moreover, this paper provides theoretical analysis and an efficient method for the calculation of typicality. Experimental results on several synthetic and $16$ real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of TANGO.
