pub struct KMeansParams<F: Float, R: Rng, D: Distance<F>>(_);
Expand description

An helper struct used to construct a set of valid hyperparameters for the K-means algorithm (using the builder pattern).

Implementations

new lets us configure our training algorithm parameters:

  • we will be looking for n_clusters in the training dataset;
  • the training is considered complete if the euclidean distance between the old set of centroids and the new set of centroids after a training iteration is lower or equal than tolerance;
  • we exit the training loop when the number of training iterations exceeds max_n_iterations even if the tolerance convergence condition has not been met.
  • As KMeans convergence depends on centroids initialization we run the algorithm n_runs times and we keep the best outputs in terms of inertia that the ones which minimizes the sum of squared euclidean distances to the closest centroid for all observations.

Defaults are provided if optional parameters are not specified:

  • tolerance = 1e-4
  • max_n_iterations = 300
  • n_runs = 10
  • init = KMeansPlusPlus

Change the value of n_runs

Change the value of tolerance
