In tidyclust: A Common API to Clustering

r descr_models("k_means", "klaR")

Tuning Parameters

defaults <- 
  tibble::tibble(tidyclust = c("num_clusters"),
                 default = c("no default"))

param <-
 k_means() %>% 
  set_engine("klaR") %>% 
  set_mode("partition") %>% 
  make_parameter_list(defaults)

This model has r nrow(param) tuning parameters:

param$item

Translation from tidyclust to the original package (partition)

k_means(num_clusters = integer(1)) %>% 
  set_engine("klaR") %>% 
  set_mode("partition") %>% 
  translate_tidyclust()

Preprocessing requirements

Only categorical variables are accepted, along with numerics with few unique values.
