Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a dataset with varying densities, how would you select an appropriate clustering algorithm, and why?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how different algorithms react to challenges in data structure.

Question 2

You have a dendrogram from hierarchical clustering showing multiple merges. Discuss how you would decide where to make the cut for clusters.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look for distance thresholds in the dendrogram that indicate promising cluster arrangements.
