תקציר	Robust HDBSCAN (HDBSCAN*) extends the original HDBSCAN algorithm with a robust single-linkage framework that handles noise, outliers, and clusters of varying densities more reliably. Introduced by Campello et al. (2015), it converts any density-based hierarchy into a stable flat clustering while explicitly modeling noise points — without requiring the user to pre-specify the number of clusters.	Spectral Clustering is a graph-based unsupervised learning algorithm, formalized by Ng, Jordan, and Weiss in 2002, that maps data points into a low-dimensional eigenspace derived from the similarity graph's Laplacian before applying k-means. This spectral embedding makes it possible to recover clusters of arbitrary shape — rings, crescents, interleaved spirals — that Euclidean distance-based methods consistently fail to separate.
