The least-squares kernel method uses these representative vectors as a training set for the classification task. We show that this combination of unsupervised and supervised learning algorithms performs very well, and we illustrate this approach using the MNIST dataset","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.13021v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2012.13021v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"k-means-kernel-classifier","repo_url":"https://github.com/mandrecut/kmeans_kernel_classifier","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"classification-1","task_name":"Classification"},{"task_slug":"clustering","task_name":"Clustering"},{"task_slug":"classification","task_name":"General Classification"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"k-means-clustering","method_name":"k-Means Clustering"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
