Introduction to Clustering Algorithms: Gaussian Mixture Models

1 minute read

Published:

Gaussian Mixed Model (GMM) refers to a linear combination of multiple Gaussian distribution functions. Gaussian Mixture Models are probabilistic models that assume all samples are derived from a mixture of an indefinite number of Gaussian distributions with unknown parameters. It belongs to the category of soft clustering methods in which each data point will be a member of each cluster in the dataset, but to varying degrees. This membership is assigned as a probability ranging from 0 to 1 of belonging to a certain cluster. Theoretically, GMM can fit any type of distribution, and is usually used to solve cases where data under the same set contains several different distributions (either the same type of distribution but with different parameters, or different types of distributions, such as normal and Bernoulli distributions).

Density-based clustering algorithm for galaxy group/cluster identification

Published in arXiv, 2024

A new density-based clustering algorithm, sOPTICS, which outperforms the traditional Friends-of-Friends (FoF) algorithm in identifying galaxy groups and clusters by incorporating a scaling factor to account for line-of-sight positional uncertainties due to redshift space distortions.

Recommended citation: Ma, H.-X.; Takeuchi, T. T.; Cooray, S.; Zhu, Y.; "Unsupervised Machine Learning for Identification of Galaxy Groups: A Comparative Study of Clustering Algorithms " 2024, arXiv e-prints, arXiv:2405.09855 https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.09855
