Comparing the Dynamics

That's an interesting result! The yearly average temperatures across clusters significantly differ for 3 of them (47.3, 60.9, and 79.24). It seems like a good split.

Now let's visualize the monthly dynamics of average temperatures across clusters, and compare the result with the 5 clusters by the K-Means algorithm. The respective line plot is below.

Oppgave

Swipe to start coding

Visualize the monthly temperature dynamics across clusters. Follow the next steps:

  1. Import KMedoids function from sklearn_extra.cluster.
  2. Create a KMedoids object named model with 4 clusters.
  3. Fit the 3-15 columns (these are not indices, but positions) of data to model.
  4. Add the 'prediction' column to data with predicted by model labels.
  5. Calculate the monthly averages using data and save the result within the d DataFrame:
  • Group the observations by the 'prediction' column.
  • Calculate the mean values.
  • Stack the columns into indices (already done).
  • Reset the indices.
  1. Assign ['Group', 'Month', 'Temp'] as columns names of d.
  2. Build lineplot with 'Month' on the x-axis, 'Temp' on the y-axis for each 'Group' of d DataFrame (i.e. separate line and color for each 'Group').
