I'd like to use silhouette score in my script, to automatically compute number of clusters in k-means clustering from sklearn.
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import csv
from sklearn.cluster import KMeans
from sklearn.metrics import silhouette_score
filename = "CSV_BIG.csv"
# Read the CSV file with the Pandas lib.
path_dir = ".\\"
dataframe = pd.read_csv(path_dir + filename, encoding = "utf-8", sep = ';' ) # "ISO-8859-1")
df = dataframe.copy(deep=True)
#Use silhouette score
range_n_clusters = list (range(2,10))
print ("Number of clusters from 2 to 9: \n", range_n_clusters)
for n_clusters in range_n_clusters:
clusterer = KMeans (n_clusters=n_clusters).fit(?)
preds = clusterer.predict(?)
centers = clusterer.cluster_centers_
score = silhouette_score (?, preds, metric='euclidean')
print ("For n_clusters = {}, silhouette score is {})".format(n_clusters, score)
Someone can help me with question marks? I don't understand what to put instead of question marks. I have taken the code from an example. The commented part is the previous versione, where I do k-means clustering with a fixed number of clusters set to 4. The code in this way is correct, but in my project I need to automatically chose the number of clusters.
