What is Clustering?
Given a set of records, organize
the records into clusters

A cluster is a subset
of records which
are similar

Clustering Requirements
• The ability to discover some or all of the hidden
clusters.
• Within-cluster similarity and between-cluster
disimilarity.
• Ability to deal with various types of attributes.
• Can deal with noise and outliers.
• Can handle high dimensionality.
• Scalability, Interpretability and usability.

Similarity - Distance Measure
To measure similarity or dissimilarity between
objects, we need a distance measure. The
usual axioms for a distance measure D are:
 D(x, x) = 0
 D(x, y) = D(y, x)
 D(x, y) ≤ D(x, z) + D(z, y) the triangle inequality

Hierarchical Clustering
• Hierarchical clustering involves creating
clusters that have a predetermined ordering
from top to bottom. For example, all files and
folders on the hard disk are organized in a
hierarchy.
• There are two types of hierarchical clustering:
– Agglomerative
– Divisive

Hierarchical Clustering - Agglomerative
1. Assign each observation to its own cluster.
2. Compute the similarity (e.g., distance)
between each of the clusters.
3. Join the two most similar clusters.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until there is only a
single cluster left.

14
Hierarchical Clustering - Divisive
1. Assign all of the observations to a single
cluster.
2. Partition the cluster to two least similar
clusters.
3. Proceed recursively on each cluster until
there is one cluster for each observation.

K Means Clustering
1. Clusters the data into k groups where k is
predefined.
2. Select k points at random as cluster centers.
3. Assign observations to their closest cluster center
according to the Euclidean distance function.
4. Calculate the centroid or mean of all instances in
each cluster (this is the mean part)
5. Repeat steps 2, 3 and 4 until the same points are
assigned to each cluster in consecutive rounds.

Clustering - Applications
• Marketing: finding groups of customers with similar
behavior.
• Insurance & Banking: identifying frauds.
• Biology: classification of plants and animals given their
features.
• Libraries: book ordering.
• City-planning: identifying groups of houses according
to their house type, value and geographical location.
• World Wide Web: document classification; clustering
weblog data to discover groups with similar access
patterns.

Summary
• Clustering is the process of organizing objects
(records or variables) into groups whose
members are similar in some way.
• Hierarchical and K-Means are the two most
used clustering techniques.
• The effectiveness of the clustering method
depends on the similarity function.
• The result of the clustering algorithm can be
interpreted and evaluated in different ways.
