DescriptionK-means convergence to a local minimum.png
English: A typical example of the k-means convergence to a local minimum. In this example, the result of k-means clustering contradicts the obvious cluster structure of data set. The small circles are data points, the four ray stars are centroids (means). The illustration was prepared with the Java applet, E.M. Mirkes, K-means and K-medoids: applet.

It is recommended to name the SVG file “K-means convergence to a local minimum.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
