First Y-Short Tandem Repeat Categorical Dataset for Clustering Applications

الملخص EN

The Y-chromosome short tandem repeat (Y-STR) data are mainly collected for a performance benchmarking result in clustering methods.

There are six Y-STR dataset items, divided into two categories: Y-STR surname and Y-haplogroup data presented here.

The Y-STR data are categorical, unique, and different from the other categorical data.

They are composed of a lot of similar and almost similar objects.

This characteristic of the Y-STR data has caused certain problems of the existing clustering algorithms in clustering them.
