Spectral clustering is a graph-theoretic clustering technique that utilizes the connectivity of data points to perform clustering and is a technique of unsupervised learning.
Clustering
There are 2 main types algorithms for clustering:
- Compactness Clustering Algorithm
- Connectivity Clustering Algorithm
Compactness
Data points that lie close to each other are divided into the same cluster and…
