Question: Given the data set as shown in Figure 1 and assume that points A 1 , A 6 and A 8 are chosen to be

Given the data set as shown in Figure 1 and assume that points A1, A6 and A8 are chosen to be
the initialized cluster centers. The coordinates of the data points are:
A1=(0,0), A2=(0,1), A3=(1,2), A4=(2,0), A5=(3,0), A6=(4,1), A7=(4,1), A8=(5,3)
(1) Use the K-means algorithm and Euclidean distance to cluster the 8 data points shown in 1a
into K =3 clusters. Show the new clusters (i.e. the examples belonging to each cluster) and cluster
centers after the first iterations, does the algorithm converge after the first iteration?
(2) Consider the case that there exist 1 must link (solid orange line) and 1 cannot link (dashed red
line) as shown in 1b. Show the new clusters and cluster centers after the first iterations, does the
algorithm converge after the first iteration?
