ERICA: Quantifying Replicability of Cluster Analysis

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2606.00302v1 Announce Type: cross Despite being ubiquitous in science, clustering remains a technique whose results are not quantitatively scrutinized via a framework. We present an analysis called evaluating replicability via iterative clustering assignments (ERICA) that is applied to a dataset to determine whether clusters are identified in a replicable manner. The pipeline computes a statistic that describes whether structure is found in a dataset.
