K Means - Learn Data Science with Travis

K-Means

K-means is a popular unsupervised machine learning algorithm used for clustering data into distinct groups. The algorithm partitions unlabelled data into a specified number of clusters, denoted as “K.” It works by iteratively assigning data points to the nearest cluster center and then recalculating the centers based on the assigned points. This process continues until the cluster assignments stabilize. K-means is widely used in various applications, such as market segmentation, image compression, and pattern recognition, due to its simplicity and efficiency in handling large datasets. Understanding K-means is essential for anyone interested in data analysis and machine learning.
