KMeans

KMeans(values, means, {
  distance(value, otherValue) { /* euclidean distance */ },
  map(value) { /* identity */ },
  maxIterations: 1024,
  mean(...values) { /* centroid */ },
  random: Math.random,
})

Implementation of the k-means algorithm to partition the values into the clusters.

argumentdescription
valuesAn iterable of the values to be clustered.
meansEither an iterable of the initial means or the number of the clusters.
distanceA function to calculate the distance between two values.
mapA function to map the values.
maxIterationsThe maximum number of iterations until the convergence.
meanA function to calculate the mean value.
randomA function as the pseudo-random number generator.

Returns the clustered values as an array of arrays.

dependencies

setup

npm

npm install @seregpie/k-means

ES module

import KMeans from '@seregpie/k-means';

Node

let KMeans = require('@seregpie/k-means');

browser

The module is globally available as KMeans.

usage

Let the initial means be chosen randomly.

let vectors = [[1, 4], [6, 2], [0, 4], [1, 3], [5, 1], [4, 0]];
let clusters = KMeans(vectors, 3);
// => [[[1, 4], [0, 4]], [[6, 2], [5, 1], [4, 0]], [[1, 3]]]

Provide the initial means.

let vectors = [[1, 4], [6, 2], [0, 4], [1, 3], [5, 1], [4, 0]];
let centroids = [[0, 7], [7, 0]];
let clusters = KMeans(vectors, centroids);
// => [[[1, 4], [0, 4], [1, 3]], [[6, 2], [5, 1], [4, 0]]]

Provide a map function to convert a value to a vector.

let Athlete = class {
  constructor(name, height, weight) {
    this.name = name;
    this.height = height;
    this.weight = weight;
  }
  toJSON() {
    return this.name;
  }
};
let athletes = [
  new Athlete('A', 185, 72), new Athlete('B', 183, 84), new Athlete('C', 168, 60),
  new Athlete('D', 179, 68), new Athlete('E', 182, 72), new Athlete('F', 188, 77),
  new Athlete('G', 180, 71), new Athlete('H', 180, 70), new Athlete('I', 170, 56),
  new Athlete('J', 180, 88), new Athlete('K', 180, 67), new Athlete('L', 177, 76),
];
let clusteredAthletes = KMeansPlusPlus(athletes, [athletes[0], athletes[1]], {
  map: athlete => [athlete.weight / athlete.height],
});
console.log(JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(clusteredAthletes)));
// => [['A', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'K'], ['B', 'J', 'L']]
