Aantal clusters

Je hebt geleerd dat je, om de data te clusteren met mixture models, drie hoofdvragen moet beantwoorden: 1) Welke verdeling, 2) Hoeveel clusters en 3) Welke parameters.

De mix_example-gegevensset is beschikbaar in je workspace en is een simulatie van een Gaussian Mixture Model. Het doel is om via eenvoudige verkennende data-analyse (bijvoorbeeld een histogram) te ontdekken hoeveel clusters je voor deze gegevensset moet overwegen.

In this chapter, you will be introduced to fundamental concepts in model-based clustering and how this approach differs from other clustering techniques. You will learn the generating process of Gaussian Mixture Models as well as how to visualize the clusters.

Exercise 1: Introduction to model-based clustering Exercise 2: Clustering approaches Exercise 3: Explore gender data Exercise 4: Gaussian distribution Exercise 5: Sampling a Gaussian distribution Exercise 6: (not so good) Estimations of the mean and sd Exercise 7: Gaussian mixture models (GMM)Exercise 8: Simulate a mixture of two Gaussian distributions Exercise 9: Plot histogram of Gaussian Mixture Exercise 10: Mixture of three Gaussian distributions

In this chapter, you will be introduced to the main structure of Mixture Models, how to address different data with this approach and how to estimate the parameters involved. To accomplish the estimation, you will learn an iterative method called Expectation-Maximization algorithm.

Exercise 1: Structure of mixture models Exercise 2: Which probability distribution?Exercise 3: Handwritten digits dataset Exercise 4: Parameters estimation Exercise 5: Estimation given the probabilities Exercise 6: Calculating the probabilities Exercise 7: EM algorithm Exercise 8: Expectation function Exercise 9: Maximization function Exercise 10: Apply the two steps Exercise 11: Plot the estimated clusters

This chapter shows how to fit Gaussian Mixture Models in 1 and 2 dimensions with `flexmix` package. The data used is formed by 10.000 observations of people with their weight, height, body mass index and informed gender.

In this module, you will learn how Mixture Models extends to consider probability distributions different from the Gaussian and how these models are fitted with `flexmix`. The datasets used are handwritten digits images and the number of crimes in Chicago city. For the first dataset you will find clusters that summarize the handwritten digits and for the second dataset, you will find clusters of communities where is more or less dangerous to live in.
