[jira] Updated: (MAHOUT-153) Implement kmeans++ for initial cluster
selection in kmeans
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-153?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Sean Owen updated MAHOUT-153:

> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MAHOUT-153
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-153
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Clustering
> Affects Versions: 0.2
> Environment: OS Independent
> Reporter: Panagiotis Papadimitriou
> Fix For: 0.3
>
> Original Estimate: 336h
> Remaining Estimate: 336h
>
> The current implementation of k-means includes the following algorithms for initial cluster selection (seed selection): 1) random selection of k points, 2) use of canopy clusters.
> I plan to implement k-means++. The details of the algorithm are available here: http://www.stanford.edu/~darthur/kMeansPlusPlus.pdf.
> Design Outline: I will create an abstract class SeedGenerator and a subclass KMeansPlusPlusSeedGenerator. The existing class RandomSeedGenerator will become a subclass of SeedGenerator.
