Σύνοψη	Ensemble K-means runs K-means clustering many times under varied initializations, random seeds, or feature subsets, then aggregates the resulting partitions into a single consensus assignment. This approach reduces K-means' well-known sensitivity to initialization and produces more stable, reproducible clusters than any single run.	Ensemble Gaussian Mixture Model (E-GMM) combines multiple independently fitted Gaussian Mixture Models to improve density estimation, clustering stability, and anomaly detection. By averaging or aggregating the probabilistic outputs of several GMMs — each trained on a different data subset or random initialization — the ensemble reduces sensitivity to local optima and random seed choice, yielding more robust and reliable results than any single GMM.
