The K-means clusterer starts with k arbitrary chosen means then allocates
|
|
|
|
each vector to the cluster with the closest mean. It then recalculates the
|
|
|
|
means of each cluster as the centroid of the vectors in the cluster. This
|
|
|
|
process repeats until the cluster memberships stabilise. This is a
|
|
|
|
hill-climbing algorithm which may converge to a local maximum. Hence the
|
|
|
|
clustering is often repeated with random initial means and the most
|
|
|
|
commonly occurring output means are chosen.
