Partition clustering is a different method of clustering that allows you to create a specified number of clusters, and to place all documents into a cluster. This method is faster than using ClusterSnapshot
.
This method adds all documents into a cluster, which means that the clusters generated are relatively broad and might represent several topics. You might want to use this method if you want to cluster the results of a query into a predefined number of clusters.
