PPT-Hierarchical Clustering Lecture Notes for Chapter 7

Introduction to Data Mining 2 nd Edition by Tan Steinbach Karpatne Kumar Two Types of Clustering Hierarchical Partitional algorithms Construct various partitions and then evaluate them by some criterion. x and want to group the data into a few cohesive clusters Here as usual but no labels are given So this is an unsupervised learning problem The means clustering algorithm is as follows 1 Initialize cluster centroids 57525 57525 randomly 2 Repeat u k. -center clustering. Ilya Razenshteyn (MIT). Silvio . Lattanzi. (Google), Stefano . Leonardi. (. Sapienza. University of Rome) and . Vahab. . Mirrokni. (Google). k. -Center clustering. Given:. Hierarchical Clustering . Produces a set of . nested clusters . organized as a hierarchical tree. Can be visualized as a . dendrogram. A tree-like diagram that records the sequences of merges or splits. Stat 600. Nonlinear DA. We discussed LDA where our . discriminant. boundary was linear. Now, lets consider scenarios where it could be non-linear. We will discuss:. QDA. RDA. MDA. As before all these methods aim to MINIMIZE the probability of misclassification.. Chapter 8: Cluster Analysis. Jesse Crawford. Department . of Mathematics. Tarleton State University. Today's Topics.

How can you do this efficiently?. K-means Clustering. Strengths. Simple iterative method. User provides “K”. Unsupervised . learning. Seeks to organize data . into . “reasonable” . groups. Often based . on some similarity (or distance) measure defined over data . elements. Quantitative characterization may include. Produces a set of . nested clusters . organized as a hierarchical tree.

Clustering is a hard problem. Many possibilities; What is best clustering ?. What is clustering?. Grouping set of documents into subsets or clusters.. The Goal of clustering algorithm is:. To create clusters that are coherent internally, but clearly different from each other. Sampath Jayarathna. Cal Poly Pomona. Hierarchical Clustering.
