day 4 of learning machine learning. today, i studied clustering and how it applies to real world problems. i learnt that clustering is an unsupervised learning technique that helps group similar data points together without using predefined labels. it is basically about finding patterns in data when nobody has already told the model what each group means. i also learnt k means clustering. k means works by choosing a number of clusters, finding the center of each cluster, and grouping data points based on how close they are to those centers. i also went through dbscan and hdbscan. dbscan groups data based on density, so it can detect outliers instead of forcing every point into a cluster. hdbscan improves on that by handling clusters with different densities, which makes it better for more complex datasets. day 4 helped me understand that machine learning is not always about prediction. sometimes, it is about discovering hidden structure in data. we keep learning 💪
