Step 3: Optimum K

rng<-2:20 #K from 2 to 20
tries <-100 #Run the K Means algorithm 100 times
avg.totw.ss <-integer(length(rng)) #Set up an empty vector to hold all of points
for(v in rng){ # For each value of the range variable
 v.totw.ss <-integer(tries) #Set up an empty vector to hold the 100 tries
 for(i in 1:tries){
 k.temp <-kmeans(Wholesale.rm.top,centers=v) #Run kmeans
 v.totw.ss[i] <-k.temp$tot.withinss#Store the total withinss
 }
 avg.totw.ss[v-1] <-mean(v.totw.ss) #Average the 100 total withinss
}
plot(rng,avg.totw.ss,type="b", main="Total Within SS by Various K",
 ylab="Average Total Within Sum of Squares",
 xlab="Value of K")

### Q1-Given this is an imperfect real-world, you need to determine what you believe is the best value for “k” and write-up this portion of your lab report. Answer:

Q2-How many points do you see in each cluster?

Q3- Load the dataset of breast cancer. Do the preliminary analysis and implement a KNN (K- nearest neighbors) model for this dataset and don’t forget that whenever it is required you should use: set.seed(12345). For designing the model, use following command:

knn(train = , test = , cl=, k = custom value) Use 80% of data for training and report the accuracy.

News Popularity problem

Q4- Now let’s get back to our problem of news popularity and see if we can apply KNN (K- nearest neighbors) to improve the accuracy of the model. Use the same strategy of training and testing that we did on first 2 labs, and don’t forget that whenever it is required you should use: set.seed(12345).

It appears that everything is straightforward. The only unknown value is k and it is your job to find the best value of k. In your report you should build this model, test it on your test data and write about the model evaluation and why you think the k that yoou have chosen is the best value.
