Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 DBSCAN
Open Source Code Yes Our code is available at https://github.com/Ninh Pham/s Dbscan.
Open Datasets Yes We conduct experiments on three popular data sets: Mnist (n = 70, 000, d = 784, # clusters = 10), Pamap2 (n = 1, 770, 131, d = 51, # clusters = 18), and Mnist8m (n = 8, 100, 000, d = 784, # clusters = 10).
Dataset Splits No We conduct experiments on three popular data sets: Mnist (n = 70, 000, d = 784, # clusters = 10), Pamap2 (n = 1, 770, 131, d = 51, # clusters = 18), and Mnist8m (n = 8, 100, 000, d = 784, # clusters = 10).
Hardware Specification Yes We conducted experiments on Ubuntu 20.04.4 with an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 2.2GHz 32-core processor (64 threads) with 128GB of DRAM.
Software Dependencies Yes We implement s DBSCAN and s OPTICS in C++ and compile with g++ -O3 -std=c++17 -fopenmp -march=native. We use the Eigen library 2 for SIMD vectorization on computing the distances.
Experiment Setup Yes Parameter settings. We consider min Pts = 50 for all experiments. s DBSCAN and s OPTICS use D = 1024, m = min Pts. Randomized kernel embeddings use σ = 2ε, d = 1024. We use k = 5 for Mnist and k = 10 for Pamap2 and Mnist8m.
