/* This is an example illustrating the use of the kkmeans object from the dlib C++ Library. The kkmeans object is an implementation of a kernelized k-means clustering algorithm. It is implemented by using the kcentroid object to represent each center found by the usual k-means clustering algorithm. So this object allows you to perform non-linear clustering in the same way a svm classifier finds non-linear decision surfaces. This example will make points from 3 classes and perform kernelized k-means clustering on those points. The classes are as follows: - points very close to the origin - points on the circle of radius 10 around the origin - points that are on a circle of radius 4 but not around the origin at all */ #include #include #include "dlib/svm.h" #include "dlib/rand.h" using namespace std; using namespace dlib; int main() { // Here we declare that our samples will be 2 dimensional column vectors. typedef matrix sample_type; // Now we are making a typedef for the kind of kernel we want to use.
