DBSCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) is a popular clustering algorithm that groups together data points that are closely packed together while marking points in low-density regions as outliers. This algorithm is particularly effective for identifying clusters of varying shapes and sizes and is robust against noise, making it a valuable tool in predictive analytics, especially in scenarios where data may be messy or incomplete.
congrats on reading the definition of dbscan. now let's actually learn it.
