Study Notes

Clustering is the process of finding meaningful groups in data.
Clustering can be done based on distance, density, or hierarchical clustering.
Clustering is important for pre-processing and can produce different results based on the data and application.
Clustering is often done using the k-means algorithm.
Clustering is important for finding similar groups of data.
DBSCAN is a density-based algorithm that creates clusters by putting edges between points that are closest to one another.
It is resistant to noise and can handle clusters of different shapes and sizes.
The aim of DBSCAN is to determine the "knee" parameter, which corresponds to the optimal Eps parameter.
A knee corresponds to a threshold where a sharp change occurs along the k-distance curve.
Cluster validity is important for supervised classification, as it determines how well the clusters represent the data.
