vastorbit.machine_learning.vast.cluster.BisectingKMeans

class vastorbit.machine_learning.vast.cluster.BisectingKMeans(name: str = None, overwrite_model: bool = False, **kwargs)

Creates a BisectingKMeans object using the VAST bisecting k-means algorithm. k-means clustering is a method of vector quantization, originally from signal processing, that aims to partition n observations into k clusters. Each observation belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean (cluster centers or cluster centroid), which serves as a prototype of the cluster. This results in a partitioning of the data space into Voronoi cells. Bisecting k-means combines k-means and hierarchical clustering.

Parameters:

• name (str, optional) – Name of the model. The model is stored in the database.

• overwrite_model (bool, optional) – If set to True, training a model with the same name as an existing model overwrites the existing model.

• **kwargs (scikit-learn model parameters.)

Variables:

• created (Many attributes are)

• phase. (during the fitting)

• feature_names_in_ (cluster_centers_, labels_, inertia_, n_features_in_,)

• note:: (..) – All attributes can be accessed using the get_attributes() method.

Examples

The following examples provide a basic understanding of usage. For more detailed examples, please refer to the Machine Learning or the Examples section on the website.

Load data for machine learning

We import vastorbit:

import vastorbit as vo

Hint

By assigning an alias to vastorbit, we mitigate the risk of code collisions with other libraries. This precaution is necessary because vastorbit uses commonly known function names like “average” and “median”, which can potentially lead to naming conflicts. The use of an alias ensures that the functions from vastorbit are used as intended without interfering with functions from other libraries.

For this example, we will use the winequality dataset.

import vastorbit.datasets as vod

data = vod.load_winequality()

Note

vastorbit offers a wide range of sample datasets that are ideal for training and testing purposes. You can explore the full list of available datasets in the Datasets, which provides detailed information on each dataset and how to use them effectively. These datasets are invaluable resources for honing your data analysis and machine learning skills within the vastorbit environment.

Model Initialization

First we import the BisectingKMeans model:

from vastorbit.machine_learning.vast import BisectingKMeans

Then we can create the model:

model = BisectingKMeans(
    n_clusters = 8,
    algorithm = 'lloyd',
    bisecting_strategy = "biggest_inertia",
    max_iter = 300,
    tol = 1e-4,
)

Important

The model name is crucial for the model management system and versioning. It’s highly recommended to provide a name if you plan to reuse the model later.

Model Training

We can now fit the model:

model.fit(data, X = ["density", "sulphates"])

Important

To train a model, you can directly use the VastFrame or the name of the relation stored in the database. The test set is optional and is only used to compute the test metrics. In vastorbit, we don’t work using X matrices and y vectors. Instead, we work directly with lists of predictors and the response name.

Hint

For clustering and anomaly detection, the use of predictors is optional. In such cases, all available predictors are considered, which can include solely numerical variables or a combination of numerical and categorical variables, depending on the model’s capabilities.

Metrics

You can also find the cluster positions by:

model.clusters_

In order to get the size of each cluster, you can use:

model.cluster_size_

To evaluate the model, various attributes are computed, such as the between sum of squares, the total within clusters sum of squares, and the total sum of squares.

model.between_clusters_ss_
model.total_within_clusters_ss_
model.total_ss_

You also have access to the sum of squares of each cluster.

model.cluster_i_ss_

Some other useful attributes can be used to evaluate the model, like the Elbow Score (the bigger it is, the better it is).

model.elbow_score_

Prediction

Predicting or ranking the dataset is straight-forward:

model.predict(data, ["density", "sulphates"])

Rows: 1-100 | Columns: 15

As shown above, a new column has been created, containing the bisected clusters.

Plots - Cluster Plot

Plots highlighting the different clusters can be easily drawn using:

model.plot()

Plots - Tree

Tree models can be visualized by drawing their tree plots. For more examples, check out Machine Learning - Tree Plots.

model.plot_tree()

Note

The above example may not render properly in the doc because of the huge size of the tree. But it should render nicely in jupyter environment.

In order to plot graph using graphviz separately, you can extract the graphviz DOT file code as follows:

model.to_graphviz()

This string can then be copied into a DOT file which can be parsed by graphviz.

Plots - Contour

In order to understand the parameter space, we can also look at the contour plots:

model.contour()

Note

Machine learning models with two predictors can usually benefit from their own contour plot. This visual representation aids in exploring predictions and gaining a deeper understanding of how these models perform in different scenarios. Please refer to Contour Plot for more examples.

Parameter Modification

In order to see the parameters:

model.get_params()

And to manually change some of the parameters:

model.set_params({'n_clusters': 5})

Model Exporting

To Memmodel

model.to_memmodel()

Note

MemModel objects serve as in-memory representations of machine learning models. They can be used for both in-database and in-memory prediction tasks. These objects can be pickled in the same way that you would pickle a scikit-learn model.

The preceding methods for exporting the model use MemModel, and it is recommended to use MemModel directly.

To SQL

You can get the SQL query equivalent of the GB model by:

model.to_sql()

Note

This SQL query can be directly used in any database.

Deploy SQL

To get the SQL query which uses VAST functions use below:

model.deploySQL()

To Python

To obtain the prediction function in Python syntax, use the following code:

X = [[0.9, 0.5]]
model.to_python()(X)

Hint

The to_python() method is used to retrieve the anomaly score. For specific details on how to use this method for different model types, refer to the relevant documentation for each model.
