Cluster analysis for mlr3.
mlr3cluster is an extension package for cluster analysis within the mlr3 ecosystem. It is a successor of clustering capabilities of mlr2.
Installation
Install the last release from CRAN:
install.packages("mlr3cluster")
Install the development version from GitHub:
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("mlr-org/mlr3cluster")
Feature Overview
The current version of mlr3cluster contains:
- A selection of 22 clustering learners that represent a wide variety of clusterers: partitional, hierarchical, fuzzy, etc.
- A selection of 4 performance measures
- Two built-in tasks to get started with clustering
Also, the package is integrated with mlr3viz which enables you to create great visualizations with just one line of code!

Future Plans
- Add more learners and measures
- Integrate the package with mlr3pipelines (work in progress)
