Class AggregateKMeansRequest
org.apache.avro.generic.GenericContainer, org.apache.avro.generic.IndexedRecordGPUdb.aggregateKMeans.
This endpoint runs the k-means algorithm - a heuristic algorithm that attempts to do k-means clustering. An ideal k-means clustering algorithm selects k points such that the sum of the mean squared distances of each member of the set to the nearest of the k points is minimized. The k-means algorithm however does not necessarily produce such an ideal cluster. It begins with a randomly selected set of k points and then refines the location of the points iteratively and settles to a local minimum. Various parameters and options are provided to control the heuristic search.
NOTE: The Kinetica instance being accessed must be running a CUDA (GPU-based) build to service this request.

AggregateKMeansRequest
public AggregateKMeansRequest()Constructs an AggregateKMeansRequest object with default parameters.AggregateKMeansRequest
public AggregateKMeansRequest(String tableName, List<String> columnNames, int k, double tolerance, Map<String, String> options) Constructs an AggregateKMeansRequest object with the specified parameters.Parameters:tableName- Name of the table on which the operation will be performed. Must be an existing table, in [schema_name.]table_name format, using standard name resolution rules.columnNames- List of column names on which the operation would be performed. If n columns are provided then each of the k result points will have n dimensions corresponding to the n columns.k- The number of mean points to be determined by the algorithm.tolerance- Stop iterating when the distances between successive points is less than the given tolerance.options- Optional parameters.WHITEN: When set to 1 each of the columns is first normalized by its stdv - default is not to whiten.MAX_ITERS: Number of times to try to hit the tolerance limit before giving up - default is 10.NUM_TRIES: Number of times to run the k-means algorithm with a different randomly selected starting points - helps avoid local minimum. Default is 1.CREATE_TEMP_TABLE: IfTRUE, a unique temporary table name will be generated in the sys_temp schema and used in place ofRESULT_TABLE. IfRESULT_TABLE_PERSISTisFALSE(or unspecified), then this is always allowed even if the caller does not have permission to create tables. The generated name is returned inQUALIFIED_RESULT_TABLE_NAME. Supported values:The default value isFALSE.RESULT_TABLE: The name of a table used to store the results, in [schema_name.]table_name format, using standard name resolution rules and meeting table naming criteria. If this option is specified, the results are not returned in the response.RESULT_TABLE_PERSIST: IfTRUE, then the result table specified inRESULT_TABLEwill be persisted and will not expire unless aTTLis specified. IfFALSE, then the result table will be an in-memory table and will expire unless aTTLis specified otherwise. Supported values:The default value isFALSE.TTL: Sets the TTL of the table specified inRESULT_TABLE.
