Bayesian K-means clustering
Bayesian K-means clustering extends the classical K-means algorithm by placing prior distributions over cluster centroids and mixing proportions. This probabilistic framework provides uncertainty estimates for cluster assignments, allows principled model selection for the number of clusters, and regularises centroid estimation — especially valuable when data are scarce or high-dimensional.
