Hands-On Artificial Intelligence with Java for Beginners

By: Nisheeth Joshi

Overview of this book

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly in demand as well as relevant in the modern world, where everything is driven by technology and data. AI can be used for automating systems or processes to carry out complex tasks and functions in order to achieve optimal performance and productivity. Hands-On Artificial Intelligence with Java for Beginners begins by introducing you to AI concepts and algorithms. You will learn about various Java-based libraries and frameworks that can be used in implementing AI to build smart applications. In addition to this, the book teaches you how to implement easy to complex AI tasks, such as genetic programming, heuristic searches, reinforcement learning, neural networks, and segmentation, all with a practical approach. By the end of this book, you will not only have a solid grasp of AI concepts, but you'll also be able to build your own smart applications for multiple domains.

Evaluating a clustering model


Now, we'll look at how to evaluate a clustering model that has been trained. Let's look at the code and see how this is done.

We'll be using the following classes:

import weka.core.Instances;
import weka.core.converters.ConverterUtils.DataSource;
import weka.clusterers.SimpleKMeans;
import weka.clusterers.ClusterEvaluation;

We'll use the ClusterEvaluation class from the weka.clusterers package for evaluation.

First, we will read our dataset into our DataSource object and assign it to the Instances object. Then, we'll create our k-means object and specify the number of clusters that we want to create. Next, we will train our clustering algorithm using the buildClusterer method; then, we'll print it using println. This is similar to what you saw earlier:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO code application logic here
    try{
        DataSource src = new DataSource("/Users/admin/Documents/NetBeansProjects/ClusterEval/weather.arff");
        Instances...
