Dense Clustering for Mixed Data Types

Amazon DenseClus

DenseClus is a Python module for clustering mixed type data using UMAP and HDBSCAN. Allowing for both categorical and numerical data, DenseClus makes it possible to incorporate all features in clustering.

Installation

python3 -m pip install Amazon-DenseClus

Usage

DenseClus requires a Panda's dataframe as input with both numerical and categorical columns. All preprocessing and extraction are done under the hood, just call fit and then retrieve the clusters!

from denseclus import DenseClus

clf = DenseClus(
    umap_combine_method="intersection_union_mapper",
)
clf.fit(df)

print(clf.score())

Examples

A hands-on example with an overview of how to use is currently available in the form of a Jupyter Notebook.
