Excellent explanation and code. I took the Johns Hopkins data science course, and clustering was part of the course. This video really helps explain the concept.
Great tutorial! You are really helping a lot of people like me, and the best part is- drama, background music etc are completely missing unlike many other tutorials. Also saw some bhojpuri songs :)...thank you sir!

+Jonathan Rhein Not sure what's causing the error you got. May have something to do with data. I ran my data using the code you have, and everything seems fine.
Thanks for such wonderful explanation. By the way, I was working on a similar dataset, and apply didnt work for me. Although I removed all character vectors, but still the numeric vectors were returning 'NA'. I applied sapply and it solved the purpose. Thanks again!!
dear professor, I am so lucky to know you. could you also update full tutorial about using rmd and advanced model like hmm? Thank you and wish you have a great day
Very Informative, great slides and explanations. The delivery and presentation was good. I will be viewing other videos produced by Edureka. Some suggestions, show more examples. Present the limitations and god fit scenarios for K-means clustering.
Hi Mr. Rai, great tutorial. Thanks for your effort. Just wanted to understand more about these 2 methodologies. Why and when we apply different methodologies i.e. K means and Hierarchy. It will be great help if you can make separate videos for the same. Also, as lots of people requested for data set and you have already uploaded to Dropbox, could you please share the link in your description for everyone's benefits. Thanks again :)
Initially we try all methods and finally choose the one that seems more meaningful for the dataset used. It's difficult to say which method will work best beforehand. Also thanks for your feedback and suggestions.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. It is extremely helpful. But my question like the other is that it would have been very kind of you if you would have linked your data set too. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your amazing videos, everything is so clear and practical :) From a french research in cognitive science, I have one tricky question for you : i would like to find the best classifier/cluster analysis for repeated measures dataset (i.e., multiple repeated measures for one subject on the same features, as this is the case in experimental psychology research for example, or in longitudinal studies). Best
Thank you very much sir. Question: using Within group SS plot (min 14:39), isn't the optimal number of clusters 5? the variability from 4 to 5 seems very significant. Please let me know.
This data has only 22 companies. As we increase number of clusters, number of companies in some clusters becomes really small, to the extent that a cluster may contain just one company. So the choice of 'k' should also consider this aspect.
Thank you so much! Very well explained. I would like to ask you if I still can use the Euclidian distance to find the closest elements of a cluster center, even if I use a dimensionality reduction approach (such as PCA, T-sne) that uses probabilities to arrange clusters in 2 dimension before using K-means.
@@bkrai oh right, thanks alot! Can you also tell how do we deal with gender variable for clustering? What im doing is mutating a new var thats 1 and 0 instead of male and female. I then convert that to numeric variable. And then i do the usual process. Is this correct?
Dear Sir..thank you for the time & effort that you have put in to make this wonderful video tutorial. I have a query. At 12:27 , how are the original average values displayed even though member.c is used which is obtained through a series of calculations using the normalised data? Why did not you use PCA to decide the no. of clusters for kmeans? Regards Aniruddh
In the 2nd aggregation line, note that I've used utilities. That's the reason we can display original values. In the 1st aggregation, z was used. Also, here focus was on clustering, so pca is not used.
Thanks for the informative video. May I please know how to deal with dichotomous variables along with continuous variables in the data if we want to include both in one cluster analysis, how do we do it please?
Thanks Bharatendra. Can you please upload video of how to performe clustering when the dataset has numbers of numerical attributes and categorical attributes. In this video you are eliminating categorical attribute. What would you have done if your dataset has 10 numeric columns and 8 categorical data. Appreciate your knowledge contribution.
+Tushar Lapani For cluster analysis you must have quantitative variables. You can use categorical variables after cluster analysis to see if they show any pattern with identified clusters and use it for characterizing the clusters.
+Bharatendra Rai You are correct...sorry for the incorrect semantics. At 2:15, you mention that broadly, there are 3 clusters but they are based only on 2 variables. Is there a way to create clusters based on more than 2 variables?
A good tutorial , Could you please also tell us when should we go for Kmeans and When should we go for Hclust(I.E situations to select methods) 2. What do we mean when we say above average and below average (in Hclust) , i mean if the value is 1.05 so are we saying that sales in cluster x is higher 1.05 than average ?? a explanation will be appreacited.. REst everything is explained in a really simple way so Subscribing the channed :) Keep it up..
Please can you give me a hint? I want to give as input the initial centres for kmeans clustering. I just do not manage to select these points out of my dataset. Thank you in advance for your help!
@@bkrai Because I try to correlate my clusters to the physical problem. That is why I was wondering if I can give initial centres as in case of software Origin Pro. I appreciate your answer.

Great tutorial. Thank you... How do you handle categorical variables for clustering? In this example looks like you removed the 1st column that happened to be a factor variable. Can you please post the data file used in the comments as well if possible? Thank you
Cluster analysis only works with quantitative variables. During the analysis you may note that we calculate distances, which we cannot do with categorical variables. But after finalizing number of clusters, you can plot dendrogram with a categorical variable to see if there is any obvious pattern or not. For data, send email id.
Nice and informative tutorial sir. I am performing hierarchical clustering on my dataset with 10 variables and 200 observations. But the output is not very interpretable. Please suggest how can I make it more interpretable. Thanks.
Great tutorial, it really help for my analysis. Im having some douts, in that while silhouette calculation, whether we need to check average silhouette value, or which value we have to check to find out the number of clusters. Please help me with that. In your analysis what is the silhoutte value for k=3, where it is showing on that plot? Second while calculating my Euclidean distance, i have 40 observations, so it is not showing complete rows of Euclidean matrix, so is there any other way to obtain the complete matrix
Hello sir, as always your videos have been very helpful and thank you for this video too. Also, I wanted to know if there is a way to improve between cluster distance? If so can you please let us know? Thank You!
There are 52 datasets where clustering can be applied in the link below: archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets.html?format=&task=clu&att=&area=&numAtt=&numIns=&type=&sort=nameUp&view=table
One suggestion to improve the video - When you click buttons and such please can you do it slowly so people can see where you click. Also perhaps consider using a highlight icon for your mouse? I had to watch 4 times before I realised you had pressed the 'run' button in the middle.
@@bkrai Thank you . Do you mean that we can develop a classification model using the clusters labels as classes?if so,then how do we take into account the distance parameters like eucledian or taxi cab etc..

Between SS captures variability between clusters. When it increases, it indicates better clustering because within cluster variability will come down. Elements within a cluster should be closer to each other whereas elements between clusters should be further away for a good cluster formation.
Nice video as always. I have couple of questions. In K means cluster example, if we want a list as per the three clusters, how do we tag that. 2nd query, I have a data set of 100000 insurance customers having customer ids and their policy Face amount. I want to divide them in cluster ( say 5 cluster) and also want to know which customer comes in which cluster (same query as first) so that I can target them for a campaign. How do we do that and which clustering technique to use? Thanks in advance.

Sir, how to interpret the between SS/total SS value? In your example, it's 36% . How should that be interpreted?
Between SS captures variability between clusters. When it increases, it indicates better clustering because within cluster variability will come down. Elements within a cluster should be closer to each other whereas elements between clusters should be further away for a good cluster formation.

Nice video as always. I have couple of questions. In K means cluster example, if we want a list as per the three clusters, how do we tag that.
2nd query, I have a data set of 100000 insurance customers having customer ids and their policy Face amount. I want to divide them in cluster ( say 5 cluster) and also want to know which customer comes in which cluster (same query as first) so that I can target them for a campaign. How do we do that and which clustering technique to use? Thanks in advance.
You can use something similar to kc$cluster that I've used at around 16:30 time point in the video.
Thanks
great tutorial.please tell me how to label he clusters
You can come up with appropriate names for the labels by looking at averages for each cluster and each variable.
Does mclust also required normalization of data?
It's always better to do normalization.
@@bkrai I have many files which I want to concatenate..should I concatenate and then normalize the data or should I normalize and then concatenate?
You can first concatenate.
@@bkrai Are you sure?
