k-Means Algorithm Configuration

The Oracle Machine Learning enhanced k-Means algorithm supports several build-time settings.

All the settings have default values. There is no reason to override the defaults unless you want to influence the behavior of the algorithm in some specific way.

You can configure k-Means by specifying the following considerations:

• Number of clusters

• Distance Function. The default distance function is Euclidean.

Note:

The term hyperparameter is also interchangeably used for model setting.
