Cluster detection is an important exploratory data-mining tool in Geographic Information Science (GISci). Traditional cluster detection methods in GISci assume clusters to be in either circular or in horizontal and vertical elliptic shapes. However, these methods are limited and may not capture diagonally elongated clusters. Consequently, these methods often delineate clusters with low accuracy, take lengthy runtime, or at times fail to report clusters.

520 $a Cluster detection is an important exploratory data-mining tool in Geographic Information Science (GISci). Traditional cluster detection methods in GISci assume clusters to be in either circular or in horizontal and vertical elliptic shapes. However, these methods are limited and may not capture diagonally elongated clusters. Consequently, these methods often delineate clusters with low accuracy, take lengthy runtime, or at times fail to report clusters.
520 $a The goal of this dissertation is to develop an improved genetic algorithm (GA) with a new flexible gene structure for detecting clusters in both circular and elongated clusters in any direction. By introducing flexibly oriented ellipses as the gene structure to better represent diagonally elongated clusters, a candidate solution list to record all possible solutions, and a combination algorithm to merge overlapping solutions, the improved genetic algorithm in this research delineates cluster boundaries close to the real shapes of clusters. It also has a competent runtime and a high percentage rate of cluster detection. The performance test on both synthetic and real-world data sets with the comparison to PROgram for CLUster DEtection and Kulldorff's suggests that the improved genetic algorithm in this research can be a viable accurate, efficient, and reliable approach to cluster detection.
520 $a The combination of the improved genetic algorithm with an artificial neural network method, self-organizing maps (SOMs) shows that improved genetic algorithm can be effective and reliable in high-dimensional environmental data mining. Finally, using the improved genetic algorithm, combined with SOMs, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), spatial techniques and statistical methods, this research evaluates dioxin contamination in the city of Midland and the Tittabawassee River floodplain in Michigan and its impact on the prevalence rates of adult female breast cancer. The improved genetic algorithm delineates the clusters of breast cancer accurately and at the same time minimizes the inclusion of background population at risk.
