Abstract

The present work explores nonparametric clustering algorithm HCA-MS. The combination of grid-based approach and Mean shift procedure allows the algorithm to discover arbitrary shaped clusters and to process large datasets, such as images. Parallel implementation of the HCA-MS algorithm on NVIDIA GPU using CUDA platform is presented. Provided experimental results on model data and multispectral images confirm the efficiency of the considered algorithm and its parallel implementation. The computation speedup on images was shown to be about 20x compared to 4 core CPU.
