Member Function Documentation

template<typename MetricType , typename MatType >

size_t mlpack::kmeans::MaxVarianceNewCluster::EmptyCluster	(	const MatType &	data,
		const size_t	emptyCluster,
		const arma::mat &	oldCentroids,
		arma::mat &	newCentroids,
		arma::Col< size_t > &	clusterCounts,
		MetricType &	metric,
		const size_t	iteration
	)

Take the point furthest from the centroid of the cluster with maximum variance to be a new cluster.

Template Parameters

MatType Type of data (arma::mat or arma::sp_mat).

Parameters

data	Dataset on which clustering is being performed.
emptyCluster	Index of cluster which is empty.
oldCentroids	Centroids of each cluster (one per column), at the start of the iteration.
newCentroids	Centroids of each cluster (one per column), at the end of the iteration. This will be modified!
clusterCounts	Number of points in each cluster.
assignments	Cluster assignments of each point.

Returns: Number of points changed.
