Description: Subspace clustering is a clustering method that focuses on identifying clusters within subspaces of high-dimensional data. Unlike traditional clustering methods that operate in the full space, this approach allows for the discovery of patterns and groupings that may not be evident in the entirety of the dimensions. This is particularly relevant in contexts where data is complex and multidimensional, such as in anomaly detection. By focusing on subspaces, specific characteristics that are more relevant to certain groups of data can be identified, improving the accuracy of anomaly identification. This method is useful in various applications, from fraud detection in financial transactions to identifying unusual behaviors in various systems. The ability to work in subspaces enables artificial intelligence algorithms to be more efficient and effective, as they can ignore irrelevant dimensions and concentrate on those that truly add value to the anomaly detection task.
