> There is following code in line 101:
>               } else if (random.nextInt(currentSize + 1) != 0) { // with chance 1/(currentSize+1) pick new element
> but it actually means pick new element with chance currentSize/(currentSize+1)
> so generator takes initial centers from the end of source data file.
> It seems that chance of replace vector in output set should decrease with number of processed input vectors
