sklearn.cluster.MeanShift

class sklearn.cluster.MeanShift(*, bandwidth=None, seeds=None, bin_seeding=False, min_bin_freq=1, cluster_all=True, n_jobs=None, max_iter=300)

Mean shift clustering using a flat kernel.

Mean shift clustering aims to discover “blobs” in a smooth density of samples. It is a centroid-based algorithm, which works by updating candidates for centroids to be the mean of the points within a given region. These candidates are then filtered in a post-processing stage to eliminate near-duplicates to form the final set of centroids.

Seeding is performed using a binning technique for scalability.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters:
bandwidthfloat, default=None

Bandwidth used in the flat kernel.

If not given, the bandwidth is estimated using sklearn.cluster.estimate_bandwidth; see the documentation for that function for hints on scalability (see also the Notes, below).

seedsarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features), default=None

Seeds used to initialize kernels. If not set, the seeds are calculated by clustering.get_bin_seeds with bandwidth as the grid size and default values for other parameters.

bin_seedingbool, default=False

If true, initial kernel locations are not locations of all points, but rather the location of the discretized version of points, where points are binned onto a grid whose coarseness corresponds to the bandwidth. Setting this option to True will speed up the algorithm because fewer seeds will be initialized. The default value is False. Ignored if seeds argument is not None.

min_bin_freqint, default=1

To speed up the algorithm, accept only those bins with at least min_bin_freq points as seeds.

cluster_allbool, default=True

If true, then all points are clustered, even those orphans that are not within any kernel. Orphans are assigned to the nearest kernel. If false, then orphans are given cluster label -1.

n_jobsint, default=None

The number of jobs to use for the computation. The following tasks benefit from the parallelization:

  • The search of nearest neighbors for bandwidth estimation and label assignments. See the details in the docstring of the NearestNeighbors class.

  • Hill-climbing optimization for all seeds.

See Glossary for more details.

None means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel_backend context. -1 means using all processors. See Glossary for more details.

max_iterint, default=300

Maximum number of iterations, per seed point before the clustering operation terminates (for that seed point), if has not converged yet.

New in version 0.22.

Attributes:
cluster_centers_ndarray of shape (n_clusters, n_features)

Coordinates of cluster centers.

labels_ndarray of shape (n_samples,)

Labels of each point.

n_iter_int

Maximum number of iterations performed on each seed.

New in version 0.22.

n_features_in_int

Number of features seen during fit.

New in version 0.24.

feature_names_in_ndarray of shape (n_features_in_,)

Names of features seen during fit. Defined only when X has feature names that are all strings.

New in version 1.0.

Notes

Scalability:

Because this implementation uses a flat kernel and a Ball Tree to look up members of each kernel, the complexity will tend towards O(T*n*log(n)) in lower dimensions, with n the number of samples and T the number of points. In higher dimensions the complexity will tend towards O(T*n^2).

Scalability can be boosted by using fewer seeds, for example by using a higher value of min_bin_freq in the get_bin_seeds function.

Note that the estimate_bandwidth function is much less scalable than the mean shift algorithm and will be the bottleneck if it is used.

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters:
deepbool, default=True

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.
