Hi all,
Simple question re k-means. If I have a data set with columns that are on
different scales (say col 1 has var=100 and col2 var=2), will this make a
difference to the k-means algorithm? It seems as though it does. If so,
should we first standardize the columns of the dataset so that each column
is given equal weight?
