Which evaluation metric is commonly used to assess the quality of clustering results?
Correct Answer: Silhouette score
- Step 1: Understand what clustering is. Clustering is a method of grouping similar items together.
- Step 2: Learn that we need a way to measure how good these groups (clusters) are.
- Step 3: Discover the Silhouette score, which is a number that helps us understand the quality of the clusters.
- Step 4: Know that the Silhouette score compares how close an item is to its own cluster versus how close it is to other clusters.
- Step 5: Realize that a higher Silhouette score means better clustering, as it indicates that items are well grouped.
