Difference between K-means clustering and Silhouette (clustering)

K-means clustering vs. Silhouette (clustering)

k-means clustering is a method of vector quantization, originally from signal processing, that is popular for cluster analysis in data mining. Silhouette refers to a method of interpretation and validation of consistency within clusters of data.

Similarities between K-means clustering and Silhouette (clustering)

K-means clustering and Silhouette (clustering) have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cluster analysis, Determining the number of clusters in a data set, Euclidean distance, K-medoids, Taxicab geometry.

Cluster analysis

Cluster analysis or clustering is the task of grouping a set of objects in such a way that objects in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar (in some sense) to each other than to those in other groups (clusters).

Determining the number of clusters in a data set

Determining the number of clusters in a data set, a quantity often labelled k as in the ''k''-means algorithm, is a frequent problem in data clustering, and is a distinct issue from the process of actually solving the clustering problem.

Euclidean distance

In mathematics, the Euclidean distance or Euclidean metric is the "ordinary" straight-line distance between two points in Euclidean space.

K-medoids

The -medoids algorithm is a clustering algorithm related to the k-means algorithm and the medoidshift algorithm.

Taxicab geometry

A taxicab geometry is a form of geometry in which the usual distance function or metric of Euclidean geometry is replaced by a new metric in which the distance between two points is the sum of the absolute differences of their Cartesian coordinates.
