摘要

In this paper, we propose a clustering algorithm based on decimal first-degree cellular automata (FDCA). Clusters are formed by reachability within cyclic spaces, where configurations in the same cycle are grouped into a single cluster. We encode data objects into compact decimal strings using Gödel number-based encoding, reducing string length while preserving key feature properties. Based on two theoretical properties like rate of self-replication and flow of information, a set of candidate rules are chosen. Then a three-stage algorithm is developed to get the desired number of clusters. Experimental results show that our method is at par with the existing algorithms in terms of clustering performance, computational efficiency, and feature preservation, offering a promising solution for clustering real-world datasets.
