Sintesi	Explainable DBSCAN pairs the DBSCAN density-based clustering algorithm with post-hoc interpretability methods — most commonly SHAP values or local surrogate models — to reveal which input features drive the algorithm's cluster and noise assignments. It enables analysts to understand why specific points were grouped together or flagged as outliers, bridging the gap between powerful density-based partitioning and human-readable explanation.	K-means is a classic unsupervised partitional clustering algorithm that divides a dataset into K non-overlapping groups by iteratively assigning each observation to its nearest centroid and updating centroids as the mean of their assigned points. It is one of the most widely used exploratory tools in machine learning and data analysis.
