What are Gaussian Mixture Models? A Powerful Clustering Algorithm

They offer a completely different challenge to a supervised learning problem – there's much more room for experimenting with the data that I have. It's no wonder that the majority of developments and breakthroughs in the machine learning space are happening in the unsupervised learning domain. And one of the most popular techniques in unsupervised learning is clustering. It's a concept we typically learn early on in our machine learning journey and it's simple enough to grasp. I'm sure you've come across or even worked on projects like customer segmentation, market basket analysis, etc.
