Clustering on Human Microbiome Sequencing Data: A Distance-Based Unsupervised Learning Model

Modeling and analyzing human microbiome allows the assessment of the microbial community and its impacts on human health. Microbiome composition can be quantified using 16S rRNA technology into sequencing data, which are usually skewed and heavy-tailed with excess zeros. Clustering methods are usefu...
