A locus is a set of points satisfying a certain condition.
So what are you conditions?
There are a lot of ways an arbitrary grouping can be made from a
larger set. What should determine if any given point should belong

It is hard to solve a problem that is under defined, unless one
makes up arbitrary constraints to satisfy the problem.
