I have been trying to cluster a scatter plot that has a triangular graph, ideally the proper clustering plot should have a linear form, as shown below: enter image description here I tried using Spectral Clustering: enter image description here and Gaussian Mixture Model: enter image description here But my the desired clusters is not achieved, I am wondering if there are other clustering forms that caters to linear grouping (obviously popular clustering methods will also not work here), the only thing I have in mind is orthogonal regression or support vector machines, to "manually" create a hyperplane.

  • $\begingroup$ Your desired clusters very much do not like clusters, so what you are after is not cluster analysis. Below you write "There is also the freedom to manually set the partition by changing the values of the quantile." and it seems that is what you did. You are imposing your beliefs on the data; it is not clear why you think this is a good idea. $\endgroup$

It seems that Quantile Regression did the job. There is also the freedom to manually set the partition by changing the values of the quantile. enter image description here
