Create Audience Segments Using K-Means Clustering in Python

ODSC - Open Data Science

One of the simplest and most popular methods for creating audience segments is through K-means clustering, which uses a simple algorithm to group consumers based on their similarities in areas such as actions, demographics, attitudes, etc. In this tutorial, we will work with a data set of users on Foursquare’s U.S.

Boost your forecast accuracy with time series clustering

AWS Machine Learning Blog

In this post, we seek to separate a time series dataset into individual clusters that exhibit a higher degree of similarity between its data points and reduce noise. The purpose is to improve accuracy by either training a global model that contains the cluster configuration or have local models specific to each cluster.

Construction of a predictive model for blood transfusion in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty and identification of clinical heterogeneity

Flipboard

To identify factors predictive of BT during the perioperative period of THA, we employed LASSO regression and the random forest (RF) algorithm as part of supervised machine learning (SML). Furthermore, we utilized unsupervised machine learning (UML) techniques to cluster THA patients who required BT based on similar clinical features.
