Multi-objective approach for multiple clusters detection in data points events.

The spatial scan statistic is a widely used technique for detecting spatial clusters. Several extensions of this technique have been developed over the years. The objectives of these techniques are the detection accuracy improvement and a flexibilization on the search clusters space. Based on Voronoi-Based Scan (VBScan), we propose a biobjective approach using a recursively VBScan method called multiobjective multiple clusters VBScan (MOMC-VBScan), alongside a new measure called matching. This approach aims to identify and delineate all multiple significant anomalies in a search space. We conduct several experiments on different simulated maps and two real datasets, showing promising results. The proposed approach proved to be fast and with good precision in determining the partitions
