k means clustering

K-means clustering is a widely used unsupervised machine learning algorithm that aims to partition a dataset into distinct groups, or clusters, based on feature similarity. The algorithm operates by initializing a specified number of centroids, which represent the center of each cluster. It then iteratively assigns data points to the nearest centroid and recalculates the centroids based on the assigned points. This process continues until the centroids stabilize, resulting in clusters that ideally have minimal intra-cluster variance and maximal inter-cluster variance. K-means is particularly valued for its simplicity and efficiency in handling large datasets.
