class ClusteringEvaluator extends Evaluator with HasPredictionCol with HasFeaturesCol with DefaultParamsWritable

:: Experimental ::

Evaluator for clustering results. The metric computes the Silhouette measure using the specified distance measure.

The Silhouette is a measure for the validation of the consistency within clusters. It ranges between 1 and -1, where a value close to 1 means that the points in a cluster are close to the other points in the same cluster and far from the points of the other clusters.
