  2. Model-based clustering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model-based_clustering

    If a Gaussian mixture is fitted to such data, a strongly non-Gaussian cluster will often be represented by several mixture components rather than a single one. In that case, cluster merging can be used to find a better clustering. [20] A different approach is to use mixtures of complex component densities to represent non-Gaussian clusters. [21 ...

  3. Mixture model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture_model

    Animation of the clustering process for one-dimensional data using a Bayesian Gaussian mixture model where normal distributions are drawn from a Dirichlet process. The histograms of the clusters are shown in different colours. During the parameter estimation process, new clusters are created and grow on the data.

  4. Cluster analysis - Wikipedia

    Cluster analysis or clustering is the task of grouping a set of objects in such a way that objects in the same ... Single-linkage on Gaussian data. At 35 clusters ...

  5. Automatic clustering algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Clustering...

    Another method that modifies the k-means algorithm for automatically choosing the optimal number of clusters is the G-means algorithm. It was developed from the hypothesis that a subset of the data follows a Gaussian distribution. Thus, k is increased until each k-means center's data is Gaussian. This algorithm only requires the standard ...

  6. Determining the number of clusters in a data set - Wikipedia

    When clustering text databases with the cover coefficient on a document collection defined by a document by term D matrix (of size m×n, where m is the number of documents and n is the number of terms), the number of clusters can roughly be estimated by the formula where t is the number of non-zero entries in D. Note that in D each row and each ...

  7. k-means clustering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-means_clustering

    Fuzzy C-Means Clustering is a soft version of k-means, where each data point has a fuzzy degree of belonging to each cluster. Gaussian mixture models trained with expectation–maximization algorithm (EM algorithm) maintains probabilistic assignments to clusters, instead of deterministic assignments, and multivariate Gaussian distributions ...

    Class hierarchy in C++ (GPL) including Gaussian Mixtures The on-line textbook: Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms , by David J.C. MacKay includes simple examples of the EM algorithm such as clustering using the soft k -means algorithm, and emphasizes the variational view of the EM algorithm, as described in Chapter 33.7 of ...

  9. EM algorithm and GMM model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EM_Algorithm_And_GMM_Model

    The EM algorithm consists of two steps: the E-step and the M-step. Firstly, the model parameters and the () can be randomly initialized. In the E-step, the algorithm tries to guess the value of () based on the parameters, while in the M-step, the algorithm updates the value of the model parameters based on the guess of () of the E-step.
