💡 Python: Simple K-Means Clustering Project

K-Means is a popular unsupervised machine learning algorithm used to partition n observations into k clusters, where each observation belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean (centroid). This simple project demonstrates K-Means on the classic Iris dataset using scikit-learn to group similar flower species based on their measurements.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from sklearn.cluster import KMeans
from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler
import numpy as np

# 1. Load the Iris dataset
iris = load_iris()
X = iris.data # Features (sepal length, sepal width, petal length, petal width)
y = iris.target # True labels (0, 1, 2 for different species) - not used by KMeans

# 2. (Optional but recommended) Scale the features
# K-Means is sensitive to the scale of features
scaler = StandardScaler()
X_scaled = scaler.fit_transform(X)

# 3. Define and train the K-Means model
# We know there are 3 species in Iris, so we set n_clusters=3
kmeans = KMeans(n_clusters=3, random_state=42, n_init=10) # n_init is important for robust results
kmeans.fit(X_scaled)

# 4. Get the cluster assignments for each data point
labels = kmeans.labels_

# 5. Get the coordinates of the cluster centroids
centroids = kmeans.cluster_centers_

# 6. Visualize the clusters (using first two features for simplicity)
plt.figure(figsize=(8, 6))

# Plot each cluster
colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue']
for i in range(3):
    plt.scatter(X_scaled[labels == i, 0], X_scaled[labels == i, 1],
                s=50, c=colors[i], label=f'Cluster {i+1}', alpha=0.7)

# Plot the centroids
plt.scatter(centroids[:, 0], centroids[:, 1],
            s=200, marker='X', c='black', label='Centroids', edgecolor='white')

plt.title('K-Means Clustering on Iris Dataset (Scaled Features)')
plt.xlabel('Scaled Sepal Length')
plt.ylabel('Scaled Sepal Width')
plt.legend()
plt.grid(True)
plt.show()

# You can also compare with true labels (for evaluation, not part of clustering process itself)
# print("True labels:", y)
# print("K-Means labels:", labels)

Code explanation: This script loads the Iris dataset, scales its features using StandardScaler, and then applies KMeans to group the data into 3 clusters. It visualizes the resulting clusters and their centroids using a scatter plot with the first two scaled features.

Part 5: Training the Model

We train the model using the fit() method, providing our training data, batch size, number of epochs, and validation data to monitor performance on unseen data.

history = model.fit(x_train, y_train, 
                    epochs=15, 
                    batch_size=64,
                    validation_data=(x_test, y_test))

#Training #MachineLearning #ModelFit

---

Part 6: Evaluating and Discussing Results

After training, we evaluate the model's performance on the test set. We also plot the training history to visualize accuracy and loss curves. This helps us understand if the model is overfitting or underfitting.

# Evaluate the model on the test data
test_loss, test_acc = model.evaluate(x_test, y_test, verbose=2)
print(f'\nTest accuracy: {test_acc:.4f}')

# Plot training & validation accuracy values
plt.figure(figsize=(12, 4))
plt.subplot(1, 2, 1)
plt.plot(history.history['accuracy'])
plt.plot(history.history['val_accuracy'])
plt.title('Model accuracy')
plt.ylabel('Accuracy')
plt.xlabel('Epoch')
plt.legend(['Train', 'Test'], loc='upper left')

# Plot training & validation loss values
plt.subplot(1, 2, 2)
plt.plot(history.history['loss'])
plt.plot(history.history['val_loss'])
plt.title('Model loss')
plt.ylabel('Loss')
plt.xlabel('Epoch')
plt.legend(['Train', 'Test'], loc='upper left')

plt.show()

Discussion:
The plots show how accuracy and loss change over epochs. Ideally, both training and validation accuracy should increase, while losses decrease. If the validation accuracy plateaus or decreases while training accuracy continues to rise, it's a sign of overfitting. Our simple model achieves a decent accuracy. To improve it, one could use techniques like Data Augmentation, Dropout layers, or a deeper architecture.

#Evaluation #Results #Accuracy #Overfitting

Part 7: Making Predictions on a Single Image

This is how you handle a single image file for prediction. The model expects a batch of images as input, so we must add an extra dimension to our single image before passing it to model.predict().

# Select a single image from the test set
img_index = 15
test_image = x_test[img_index]
true_label_index = np.argmax(y_test[img_index])

# Display the image
plt.imshow(test_image)
plt.title(f"Actual Label: {class_names[true_label_index]}")
plt.show()

# The model expects a batch of images, so we add a dimension
image_for_prediction = np.expand_dims(test_image, axis=0)
print("Image shape before prediction:", test_image.shape)
print("Image shape after adding batch dimension:", image_for_prediction.shape)

# Make a prediction
predictions = model.predict(image_for_prediction)
predicted_label_index = np.argmax(predictions[0])

# Print the result
print(f"\nPrediction Probabilities: {predictions[0]}")
print(f"Predicted Label: {class_names[predicted_label_index]}")
print(f"Actual Label: {class_names[true_label_index]}")

📌 What to Do When Your Credit Risk Model Works Today, but Breaks Six Months Later

🗂 Category: DATA SCIENCE

🕒 Date: 2025-11-04 | ⏱️ Read time: 9 min read

Credit risk models can deliver strong initial results but often degrade within months due to model drift, where shifts in economic conditions or customer behavior invalidate the original data patterns. This leads to inaccurate predictions and increased financial risk. The key to long-term success lies in implementing robust monitoring systems to detect performance decay early, establishing automated retraining pipelines, and architecting models that are more resilient to changing data landscapes.

Python tip:
Use np.polyval() to evaluate a polynomial at specific values.

import numpy as np
poly_coeffs = np.array([3, 0, 1]) # Represents 3x^2 + 0x + 1
x_values = np.array([0, 1, 2])
y_values = np.polyval(poly_coeffs, x_values)
print(y_values) # Output: [ 1  4 13] (3*0^2+1, 3*1^2+1, 3*2^2+1)

Python tip:
Use np.polyfit() to find the coefficients of a polynomial that best fits a set of data points.

import numpy as np
x = np.array([0, 1, 2, 3])
y = np.array([0, 0.8, 0.9, 0.1])
coefficients = np.polyfit(x, y, 2) # Fit a 2nd degree polynomial
print(coefficients)

Python tip:
Use np.clip() to limit values in an array to a specified range, as an instance method.

import numpy as np
arr = np.array([1, 10, 3, 15, 6])
clipped_arr = arr.clip(min=3, max=10)
print(clipped_arr)

Python tip:
Use np.squeeze() to remove single-dimensional entries from the shape of an array.

import numpy as np
arr = np.zeros((1, 3, 1, 4))
squeezed_arr = np.squeeze(arr) # Removes axes of length 1
print(squeezed_arr.shape) # Output: (3, 4)

Python tip:
Create a new array with an inserted axis using np.expand_dims().

import numpy as np
arr = np.array([1, 2, 3]) # Shape (3,)
expanded_arr = np.expand_dims(arr, axis=0) # Add a new axis at position 0
print(expanded_arr.shape) # Output: (1, 3)

Python tip:
Use np.ptp() (peak-to-peak) to find the range (max - min) of an array.

import numpy as np
arr = np.array([1, 5, 2, 8, 3])
peak_to_peak = np.ptp(arr)
print(peak_to_peak) # Output: 7 (8 - 1)

Python tip:
Use np.prod() to calculate the product of array elements.

import numpy as np
arr = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4])
product = np.prod(arr)
print(product) # Output: 24 (1 * 2 * 3 * 4)

Python tip:
Use np.allclose() to compare two arrays for equality within a tolerance.

import numpy as np
a = np.array([1.0, 2.0])
b = np.array([1.00000000001, 2.0])
print(np.allclose(a, b)) # Output: True

Python tip:
Use np.array_split() to split an array into N approximately equal sub-arrays.

import numpy as np
arr = np.arange(7)
split_arr = np.array_split(arr, 3) # Split into 3 parts
print(split_arr)
