Mean shift
Algorithms AIMech:MeanShift DRAFT
Mode-seeking clustering that moves candidate centers toward local density maxima.
Identity Notes & Concept Scope
Clustering does not specify iterative mode seeking in a kernel density estimate.
Claims & Grounded Evidence
1 Claim
Mechanism
#mechanism
Candidate centers are iteratively shifted toward local means of observations in their neighborhoods.
⚠️ Curated Limitations & Negative Results
- This record supports method identity and the stated mechanism only; no universal performance or biological efficacy claim is curated.
- Proposed placement is an inference from the existing AIO hierarchy; maintainers must resolve task, algorithm and model scope before acceptance.
