Clustering of 3D spatial points using maximum likelihood estimator over voronoi tessellations: Study of the galaxy distribution in redshift space
This paper describes an algorithm based on the 2D approach of Allard and Fraley that uses Voronoi tessellation and a non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator. We have designed a 3D version of this algorithm which detects multiple clusters of points immersed in background noise; its application to...
