Unsupervised learning finds hidden structure in unlabeled data. This visual guide covers clustering, dimensionality reduction, anomaly detection, common algorithms like K-means and PCA, and where unsupervised learning is used.

Finding hidden patterns in data without labels.

The model discovers structure on its own.

Supervised predicts; unsupervised explores.

Grouping similar data points together.

Group data into k clusters by similarity.

The elbow method helps pick cluster count.

Build nested groups of data.

Cluster by density, finding odd shapes.

Simplify data while keeping meaning.

Reduce features to the most informative ones.

Faster models and easier visualization.

Visualize high-dimensional data in 2D.

Find unusual points that don’t fit.

Discover items that occur together.

“People who buy X also buy Y.”

Harder without labels — use silhouette scores.

Customer segments, fraud, and recommendations.

Results can be hard to interpret.

Mix a little labeled data with lots unlabeled.

Try K-means on a customer dataset.
