Abstract

This paper provides the comparison of different distance functions like squared euclidean, cityblock, cosine, pearson correlation & hamming distances. K- Means clustering algorithm is used to make the comparison of different distance functions. The results obtained are validated with the help of Silhouette Coefficient. We found out that there is a variation in the results provided by different functions.
