What is it?
  • Divides data into groups (clusters or segments or partitions)

Types of Clustering and Cluster

Types of Clustering
  • Exclusive Clustering
  • overlapping Clustering
  • Hierarchical Clustering
Exclusive Clustering :-
  • Hard Clustering
  • Data point/ Item belong exclusively to one cluster
  • For example : K-means Clustering
  
Overlapping Clustering :-
  • Soft Cluster
  • Data point/Item belong to multiple cluster
  • For example : Fuzzy/ C-Means Cluster
Hierarchical Clustering :-
Types of Cluster
  • Well Separated
  • Prototype Based
  • Graph Based
  • Density Based
