Résumé	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.	HDBSCAN (Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) is a density-based clustering algorithm introduced by Campello, Moulavi, and Sander in 2013. It extends DBSCAN by building a full hierarchy of density-based clusters across all density scales and then extracting a stable flat partition, making it robust to datasets where cluster densities vary substantially across regions.	Semi-supervised HDBSCAN extends the Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (HDBSCAN) algorithm by incorporating partial supervision — such as must-link and cannot-link pairwise constraints or a small set of labeled examples — to guide the density-based cluster hierarchy toward cluster assignments that are consistent with available domain knowledge.
