AutoElbow: An Automatic Elbow Detection Method for Estimating the Number of Clusters in a Dataset

The elbow technique is a well-known method for estimating the number of clusters required as a starting parameter in the K-means algorithm and certain other unsupervised machine-learning algorithms. However, due to the graphical output nature of the method, human assessment is necessary to determine...
