基于KMeans聚类分析使用silhouette选择聚类的数目¶
轮廓分析可以用来研究聚类之间的分离距离。轮廓图显示了一个聚类中的每一个点与其最相邻的聚类中的点之间的距离,从而提供了一种可视化评估参数(如簇数)的方法。这一度量的范围为[-1,1]。
轮廓系数(这些值的称谓)在+1附近表示样本远离相邻的簇。值为0表示样本位于或非常接近两个相邻簇之间的决策边界,而负值则表示这些样本可能被分配到错误的聚类中。在这个例子中,使用轮廓分析来选择n_clusters
的最优值。轮廓图显示,n_clusters
为3、5和6, 对于给定的数据来说是一个糟糕的选择,因为存在着低于平均轮廓分数的簇,而且由于轮廓图的大小有很大的波动。轮廓分析的决定是2和4之间。, 但是比较矛盾。
此外,根据轮廓图的厚度,可以将聚类大小可视化。当n_clusters
等于2时,簇0的轮廓图由于将3个子簇分组成一个大簇而变得较大。然而,当n_clusters
等于4时,所有图的厚度都差不多,因此大小相似,也可以从右侧的标号散点图中得到验证。
For n_clusters = 2 The average silhouette_score is : 0.7049787496083262
For n_clusters = 3 The average silhouette_score is : 0.5882004012129721
For n_clusters = 4 The average silhouette_score is : 0.6505186632729437
For n_clusters = 5 The average silhouette_score is : 0.5745566973301872
For n_clusters = 6 The average silhouette_score is : 0.4387644975296138
