[Java-ML-support] Question about AIC and BIC scores

[Sergio P. <spu...@gm...>]

Hello all,

I see that the implementation of AICScore and BICScore uses a k=1 as the
number of free parameters

// number of free parameters K
double k = 1;

Can you explain me why the number of free parameters is not the number of
clusters -1?

// number of free parameters K
double k = clusters.length - 1;

Thank you a lot,
Sergio.
