Introduction
• Cluster Analysis
– Clustering (unsupervised classification) is a process of partitioning data
objects into a set of meaningful sub-classes called clusters by maximizing
intra closeness in a cluster and minimizing inter closeness between clusters.

Given a set D of n data objects with a polygon P(V, E), a visible space S is a space
that has a set P of data objects satisfying the following
1.
Space S is defined by three edges: the first edge(edges) e  E connects two
minimal convex points vi, vj  V, the second edge f is the extension of the line
connecting vi and its other adjacent point vk  V, and the third edge g is the
extension of the line connecting vj and its other adjacent vl  V.
