K-means clustering
JavaScript, Algorithm, Array · Dec 29, 2020
Groups the given data into k clusters, using the k-means clustering algorithm.
- Use
Array.from()andArray.prototype.slice()to initialize appropriate variables for the clustercentroids,distancesandclasses. - Use a
whileloop to repeat the assignment and update steps as long as there are changes in the previous iteration, as indicated byitr. - Calculate the euclidean distance between each data point and centroid using
Math.hypot(),Object.keys()andArray.prototype.map(). - Use
Array.prototype.indexOf()andMath.min()to find the closest centroid. - Use
Array.from()andArray.prototype.reduce(), as well asparseFloat()andNumber.prototype.toFixed()to calculate the new centroids.
const kMeans = (data, k = 1) => {
const centroids = data.slice(0, k);
const distances = Array.from({ length: data.length }, () =>
Array.from({ length: k }, () => 0)
);
const classes = Array.from({ length: data.length }, () => -1);
let itr = true;
while (itr) {
itr = false;
for (let d in data) {
for (let c = 0; c < k; c++) {
distances[d][c] = Math.hypot(
...Object.keys(data[0]).map(key => data[d][key] - centroids[c][key])
);
}
const m = distances[d].indexOf(Math.min(...distances[d]));
if (classes[d] !== m) itr = true;
classes[d] = m;
}
for (let c = 0; c < k; c++) {
centroids[c] = Array.from({ length: data[0].length }, () => 0);
const size = data.reduce((acc, _, d) => {
if (classes[d] === c) {
acc++;
for (let i in data[0]) centroids[c][i] += data[d][i];
}
