Model versions are typically used to track the improvement or degradation of the performance with selected metrics as evaluation criteria for frequent model trainings. **Evaluation metrics** Clustering metrics are derived by the performance of the model during the training and validation process , similar to any machine learning model . ![model-evaluation-1](https://catalyst-docs-development.zohostratus.in/images/tutorials/customer-segmentation-analysis/model-evaluation-1.webp) Learn more about model evaluation metrics in[ our documentation](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/quickml/help/learning-center/clustering/#clustering-evaluation-metrics) . **Visualizations** To evaluate the dispersion of records into clusters, QuickML can generate a couple of visualizations to assist in analysis . ![model-evaluation-2](https://catalyst-docs-development.zohostratus.in/images/tutorials/customer-segmentation-analysis/model-evaluation-2.webp) 1. Cluster distribution_ shows how many data points fall into each cluster . 2. Cluster _plot_ highlights how clusters are separated in a lower-dimensional space. Learn more about the cluster visualizations [in our documentation](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/quickml/help/learning-center/clustering/#visual-evaluation-of-clusters) . **View model predictions** On top of the model evaluation metrics and model visualizations, QuickML also provides a model predictions dataset. The original training dataset is equipped with a column called **Cluster** . This column contains the cluster information of each customer , which you can find using cust_id. It specifies a customer can belong to only one of the clusters . ![model-evaluation-3](https://catalyst-docs-development.zohostratus.in/images/tutorials/customer-segmentation-analysis/model-evaluation-3.webp) The model predictions dataset generated by the model can be downloaded locally and used for further analysis of each customer segment .
