Clustering algorithms group data points based on similarity from "summary" of Introduction to Machine Learning with Python by Andreas C. Müller,Sarah Guido

Clustering algorithms are a type of unsupervised learning method that aims to group data points together based on their similarity. The goal of these algorithms is to find the inherent structure within the data without any prior knowledge of the groups that the data points belong to. The basic idea behind clustering is to partition the data into groups, or clusters, such that data points within the same cluster are more similar to each other than to those in other clusters. The process of clustering involves assigning data points to clusters in a way that maximizes the similarity within clusters and minimizes the similarity between clusters. This is done by defining a similarity measure, such as distance, and using it to group data points that are close to each other in the feature space. Clustering algorithms can be broadly categorized into two main types: partitioning algorithms and hierarchical algorithms....
