  1. Why do we use k-means instead of other algorithms?

    Other clustering algorithms with better features tend to be more expensive. In this case, k-means becomes a great solution for pre-clustering, reducing the space into disjoint smaller sub-spaces …

  2. clustering - What algorithm should I use to cluster a huge binary ...

    No need to use a specific binary clustering algorithm. kmeans is simple and clustering 650K vectors should be easily feasible on a decent desktop. 4 - If you wish to have binary cluster vectors as the …

  3. Choosing a clustering method - Cross Validated

    Because of the strong non-linear cluster in the second data set, the linkage and density clustering algorithms work far better than any centroid-based method. There is no similarity measure that will …

  4. What are the most common metrics for comparing two clustering ...

    For clustering results, usually people compare different methods over a set of datasets which readers can see the clusters with their own eyes, and get the differences between different methods results. …

  5. Is it important to scale data before clustering? - Cross Validated

    Mar 12, 2014 · I found this tutorial, which suggests that you should run the scale function on features before clustering (I believe that it converts data to z-scores). I'm wondering whether that is necessary.

  6. Applying clustering algorithms after t-SNE in R - Cross Validated

    Apr 2, 2024 · So I'm doing my bachelor`s work and I'm applying different clustering algorithms on certain data. Before all the clustering of course I'm using a dimensionality reduction algorithm such as t-SNE …

  7. Clustering methods that do not require pre-specifying the number of ...

    Oct 24, 2016 · Are there any "non-parametric" clustering methods for which we don't need to specify the number of clusters? And other parameters like the number of points per cluster, etc.

  8. validation - How to select a clustering method? How to validate a ...

    Feb 14, 2016 · One might say "the best method of clustering is which gives you the right answer"; but I may question in response that cluster analysis is supposed to be an unsupervised technique - so …

  9. Clustering Algorithm for labeled data - Cross Validated

    Nov 7, 2016 · Clustering algorithms will always perform much much worse compared to classification methods. If you have labels, use classification or regression instead of clustering!

  10. Evaluation measures of goodness or validity of clustering (without ...

    Jan 27, 2012 · Internal indices are used to measure the goodness of a clustering structure without external information (Tseng et al., 2005). For external indices, we evaluate the results of a clustering …
