Online DBSCAN

Online DBSCAN extends the classic density-based clustering algorithm to handle continuously arriving data points without re-clustering the entire dataset from scratch. Each new observation is integrated into the existing cluster structure by local neighborhood queries, making it practical for streaming and data-warehousing scenarios where data grows incrementally.
