Clustering package (scipy.cluster
)#
Clustering algorithms are useful in information theory, target detection,
communications, compression, and other areas. The vq
module only
supports vector quantization and the k-means algorithms.
The hierarchy
module provides functions for hierarchical and
agglomerative clustering. Its features include generating hierarchical
clusters from distance matrices,
calculating statistics on clusters, cutting linkages
to generate flat clusters, and visualizing clusters with dendrograms.
