IC1 – The spectral theory of geometric clustering

Lecturer: Dustin Mixon
Fields: Mathematical Data Science

Content

Given several points in a high-dimensional space, we would like to cluster the points according to similarity. But how can one find the best clustering? In this talk, we show how eigenvectors point to the solution.
