Bisecting K-Means clustering.
Read more in the User Guide.
Added in version 1.1.
- Parameters:
- n_clustersint, default=8
The number of clusters to form as well as the number of centroids to generate.
- init{‘k-means++’, ‘random’} or callable, default=’random’
Method for initialization:
‘k-means++’ : selects initial cluster centers for k-mean clustering in a smart way to speed up convergence. See section Notes in k_init for more details.
‘random’: choose
n_clusters
observations (rows) at random from data for the initial centroids.If a callable is passed, it should take arguments X, n_clusters and a random state and return an initialization.
- n_initint, default=1
Number of time the inner k-means algorithm will be run with different centroid seeds in each bisection. That will result producing for each bisection best output of n_init consecutive runs in terms of inertia.
- random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, default=None
Determines random number generation for centroid initialization in inner K-Means. Use an int to make the randomness deterministic. See Glossary.
- max_iterint, default=300
Maximum number of iterations of the inner k-means algorithm at each bisection.
- verboseint, default=0
Verbosity mode.
- tolfloat, default=1e-4
Relative tolerance with regards to Frobenius norm of the difference in the cluster centers of two consecutive iterations to declare convergence. Used in inner k-means algorithm at each bisection to pick best possible clusters.
- copy_xbool, default=True
When pre-computing distances it is more numerically accurate to center the data first. If copy_x is True (default), then the original data is not modified. If False, the original data is modified, and put back before the function returns, but small numerical differences may be introduced by subtracting and then adding the data mean. Note that if the original data is not C-contiguous, a copy will be made even if copy_x is False. If the original data is sparse, but not in CSR format, a copy will be made even if copy_x is False.
- algorithm{“lloyd”, “elkan”}, default=”lloyd”
Inner K-means algorithm used in bisection. The classical EM-style algorithm is
"lloyd"
. The"elkan"
variation can be more efficient on some datasets with well-defined clusters, by using the triangle inequality. However it’s more memory intensive due to the allocation of an extra array of shape(n_samples, n_clusters)
.- bisecting_strategy{“biggest_inertia”, “largest_cluster”}, default=”biggest_inertia”
Defines how bisection should be performed:
“biggest_inertia” means that BisectingKMeans will always check all calculated cluster for cluster with biggest SSE (Sum of squared errors) and bisect it. This approach concentrates on precision, but may be costly in terms of execution time (especially for larger amount of data points).
“largest_cluster” - BisectingKMeans will always split cluster with largest amount of points assigned to it from all clusters previously calculated. That should work faster than picking by SSE (‘biggest_inertia’) and may produce similar results in most cases.
- Attributes:
- cluster_centers_ndarray of shape (n_clusters, n_features)
Coordinates of cluster centers. If the algorithm stops before fully converging (see
tol
andmax_iter
), these will not be consistent withlabels_
.- labels_ndarray of shape (n_samples,)
Labels of each point.
- inertia_float
Sum of squared distances of samples to their closest cluster center, weighted by the sample weights if provided.
- n_features_in_int
Number of features seen during fit.
- feature_names_in_ndarray of shape (
n_features_in_
,) Names of features seen during fit. Defined only when
X
has feature names that are all strings.

Original implementation of K-Means algorithm.
Notes
It might be inefficient when n_cluster is less than 3, due to unnecessary calculations for that case.
