Download the PHP package crwgregory/php-kmeans without Composer

On this page you can find all versions of the php package crwgregory/php-kmeans. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

PHP K-Means

Clustering made simple

k-means clustering is a method of vector quantization, originally from signal processing, that is popular for cluster analysis in data mining. k-means clustering aims to partition n observations into k clusters in which each observation belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean, serving as a prototype of the cluster. This results in a partitioning of the data space into Voronoi cells.

PHP K-Means, like its name suggest, is an implementation of K-Means and K-Means++ algorithms for the PHP plateform. It works with an unlimited number of dimentions.

Usage

Given the following points of R²

We want to find 3 clusters:

Now we can retrieve each cluster's centroid (the average meaning amongts its points) and all the points in it:

Example of output:

Heads up!

K-Means algorithm is non-deterministic so you may get different results when running it multiple times with the same data. The more points you add in the space, the more accurate the result will be.

You are strongly advised to read the Wikipedia article thoroughly before using this library.

K-Means++

When triggering the Kmeans\Space::solve method, you may provide an alternative seeding method in order to initialize the clusters with the David Arthur and Sergei Vassilvitskii algorithm which avoids poor clustering results.

Howto

Get coordinates of a point/cluster:

List all points of a space/cluster:

Attach data to a point:

Retrieve point data:

Watch the algorithm run

Each iteration step can be monitored using a callback function passed to Kmeans\Space::solve:
