I am not asking about k-means. I am asking about passing initial assignments to the kernel k means algorithm. In kernel k-means, centroids are not defined explicitly. I tried passing initial centroids in the original feature space though. But, it did not work. The provided example just sets the num

Hi, I would say that if you know what k-means algorithm is, you know the meaning of "initial cluster centers". You can also check the output of the provided example. Regards, Pascal On 04/03/2013 09:27 AM, Ahmed Elgohary wrote: Hi, I am trying to pass initial cluster assignments to the kkm
