Infos regarding the 1st Project; Clustering: Fuzzy slides

Hello,


Here are a few announcements:

Tomorrow we will start a new chapter dedicated to Clustering;
The Fuzzy Sets and Systems slides are available;

Regarding the 1st project, I would like to emphasise that when presenting the classification results it is way more important to present a confusion matrix containing the number of correctly and incorrectly classified cases (absolute values), than a normalized confusion matrix (with values between 0 and 1).
Knowing the absolute number of cases is particularly important when the classes are imbalanced, and helps to explain why you might be getting "inconsistent" results.
