To avoid distortions caused by excessive outliers, it’s possible to use PAM algorithm, which is less sensitive to outliers. Alternative to k-means clustering A robust alternative to k-means is PAM, which is based on medoids. As discussed in the next chapter, the PAM clustering can be compu...
Introduction to K-Means AlgorithmK-means clustering algorithm computes the centroids and iterates until we it finds optimal centroid. It assumes that the number of clusters are already known. It is also called flat clustering algorithm. The number of clusters identified from data by algorithm is ...
Clustering algorithmssimilarity measuresK-meansperiodic attributesThe K-means algorithm is very popular in the machine learning community due to its inherent simplicity. However, in its basic form, it is not suitable for use in problems which contain periodic attributes, such as oscillator phase, ...

Note:K means algorithm is one of the simplest partition clustering method. More advanced algorithms related to k means areExpected Maximization (EM) algorithmespeciallyGaussian Mixture, Self-Organization Map (SOM) from Kohonen, Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ). To overcome weakness of k means, seve...
For example, if a huge set of sales data was clustered, information about the data in each cluster might reveal patterns that could be used for targeted marketing.There are several clustering algorithms. One of the most common is called the k-means algorithm. There are several variations of ...
The k-medoids algorithm requires the user to specify k, the number of clusters to be generated (like in k-means clustering). A useful approach to determine the optimal number of clusters is thesilhouettemethod, described in the next sections. ...
For example, the original k-means algorithm treats a zero angle as very far from an angle that is 359 degrees. Periodic boundary conditions often change the classical distance measure and introduce an error in k-means clustering. In the paper, we discuss the problem of periodicity in the ...
