Homework 9: Due 4 May 2015

This homework can be done in pairs. It is more elaborate than previous homeworks, and is intended to be somewhat open ended. A good submission will include figures like those in the text: examples of the cluster centers; examples of the histograms; examples of the signals; and a class confusion matrix. You can do this homework in relatively few lines of R (my version ran to about 30 lines), but it takes some thought to know which ones.

  1. Do problems 13.1 at the end of chapter 13 ("Clustering") in the 16 April edition of the book. If you think you've already done this one, you're looking at the wrong edition; I reordered the chapters.
