The capacity of a clustering model can be defined as the ability to represent complex spatial data distributions. We introduce a method to quantify the capacity of an approximate spectral clustering model based on the eigenspectrum of the similarity matrix, providing the ability to measure capacity in a direct way and to estimate the most suitable model parameters. The method is tested on simple datasets and applied to a forged banknote classification problem.

Abstract
The capacity of a clustering model can be defined as the ability to represent complex spatial data distributions. We introduce a method to quantify the capacity of an approximate spectral clustering model based on the eigenspectrum of the similarity matrix, providing the ability to measure capacity in a direct way and to estimate the most suitable model parameters. The method is tested on simple datasets and applied to a forged banknote classification problem.File in questo prodotto:
