Sets and Clustering Algorithms
K-Means Clustering 1
Uses sets to partition data points into k clusters, where
each cluster represents a set of similar data points.
2 Hierarchical Clustering
Constructs a hierarchy of sets, starting with individual
data points and merging them based on their similarity.
Density-Based Clustering 3
Identifies clusters as dense regions of data points,
separated by low-density areas, using sets to define the
density of data points.
