In the presence of huge high dimensional datasets, it is important to investigate and visualize the connectivity of patterns in huge arbitrary shaped clusters. While density or distance-relatedness based clustering algorithms are used to efficiently discover clusters of arbitrary shapes and densities, classical (yet less efficient) clustering algorithms can be used to analyze the internal cluster structure and visualize it. In this work, a sequential ensemble, that uses an efficient distance-relatedness based clustering, “Mitosis”, followed by the centre-based K-means algorithm, is proposed. K-means is used to segment the clusters obtained by Mitosis into a number of subclusters. The ensemble is used to reveal the gradual change of patterns when applied to gene expression sets.
