unsupervised learning

hi,

I was wondering how we tune hyperparameters in unsupervised learning (for ex k in K-means). Since we don't really have a train-validation-test set split.

thanks

Lab 11, exercise 2 exactly deals with your question:

For example, looking where the (training) cost function decreases rapidly before plateauing is one of the ways to choose \(k\).
See e.g. https://medium.com/analytics-vidhya/how-to-determine-the-optimal-k-for-k-means-708505d204eb
