Coresets can be described as a compact subset such that models trained on coresets will also provide a good fit with models trained on full data set. Using coresets, we can scale down a big data to a tiny one to reduce the computational cost of a machine learning problem. In recent years, data scientists have investigated various methods to create coresets with many techniques and approaches, especially for solving the problem of clustering large datasets. In this paper, we make comparisons among four state-of-the-art algorithms: ProTraS by Ros and Guillaume with improvements, Lightweight Coreset by Bachem et al. Adaptive Sampling Coreset by Feldman et al. and a native Farthest-First-Traversal-based coreset construction. We briefly introduce these four algorithms and compare their performances to find out the benefits and drawbacks of each one.
