Abstract

Neural Networks are able to cluster data sets and our goal was to figure out how well the neural network clustered. The MNIST data set was ran through a neural network and the distances were extracted from both the feature and output layer. Five different distances were used on both layers. K-means clustering was used assess the clustering performance of each layer in the neural network. Results conveyed that the feature layer was not as proficient at clustering when compared to the output layer. The type of distance did not make a significant difference for clustering. These conclusions can be derived from qualitative observation of the cluster graphs. By observing the clustering performance of the different layers in the CNN, we are able to gain insight on the neural network.
