AI Summary
This discussion post delves into the fundamentals of clustering, beginning with identifying real-world problems that can be effectively addressed using clustering techniques, along with examples of potential data and the benefits of applying clustering. It explores key questions to be answered through clustering and clarifies the distinction between supervised and unsupervised classification, determining whether the identified problem aligns with supervised or unsupervised learning. A non-mathematical explanation of the K-means clustering algorithm is provided, outlining the steps involved in assigning data points to clusters and iteratively refining cluster centroids. The post references studies on text clustering for topic identification and density-based sampling for clustering algorithms.
