pyclustring is a python data mining library

PyClustering

pyclustering is a Python, C++ data mining library (clustering algorithm, oscillatory networks, neural networks). The library provides Python and C++ implementations (C++ pyclustering library) of each algorithm or model. C++ pyclustering library is a part of pyclustering and supported for Linux, Windows and MacOS operating systems.

Official repository: https://github.com/annoviko/pyclustering/

Documentation: https://pyclustering.github.io/docs/0.10.1/html/

Dependencies

Required packages: scipy, matplotlib, numpy, Pillow

Python version: >=3.6 (32-bit, 64-bit)

C++ version: >= 14 (32-bit, 64-bit)

Performance

Each algorithm is implemented using Python and C/C++ language, if your platform is not supported then Python implementation is used, otherwise C/C++. Implementation can be chosen by ccore flag (by default it is always ‘True’ and it means that C/C++ is used), for example:

# As by default - C/C++ part of the library is used
xmeans_instance_1 = xmeans(data_points, start_centers, 20, ccore=True);

# The same - C/C++ part of the library is used by default
xmeans_instance_2 = xmeans(data_points, start_centers, 20);

# Switch off core - Python is used
xmeans_instance_3 = xmeans(data_points, start_centers, 20, ccore=False);

Installation

Installation using pip3 tool:

$ pip3 install pyclustering

Manual installation from official repository using Makefile:

# get sources of the pyclustering library, for example, from repository
$ mkdir pyclustering
$ cd pyclustering/
$ git clone https://github.com/annoviko/pyclustering.git .

# compile CCORE library (core of the pyclustering library).
$ cd ccore/
$ make ccore_64bit      # build for 64-bit OS

# $ make ccore_32bit    # build for 32-bit OS

# return to parent folder of the pyclustering library
$ cd ../

# install pyclustering library
$ python3 setup.py install

# optionally - test the library
$ python3 setup.py test

Manual installation using CMake:

# get sources of the pyclustering library, for example, from repository
$ mkdir pyclustering
$ cd pyclustering/
$ git clone https://github.com/annoviko/pyclustering.git .

# generate build files.
$ mkdir build
$ cmake ..

# build pyclustering-shared target depending on what was generated (Makefile or MSVC solution)
# if Makefile has been generated then
$ make pyclustering-shared

# return to parent folder of the pyclustering library
$ cd ../

# install pyclustering library
$ python3 setup.py install

# optionally - test the library
$ python3 setup.py test

Manual installation using Microsoft Visual Studio solution:

1. Clone repository from: https://github.com/annoviko/pyclustering.git

2. Open folder pyclustering/ccore

3. Open Visual Studio project ccore.sln

4. Select solution platform: x86 or x64

5. Build pyclustering-shared project.

6. Add pyclustering folder to python path or install it using setup.py

# install pyclustering library
$ python3 setup.py install

# optionally - test the library
$ python3 setup.py test
