ENH: take advantage of scikit-learn's new neighbors tools #27

Closed jakevdp closed 10 years ago

jakevdp commented 10 years ago

Scikit-learn 0.14 includes a new Ball Tree and KD Tree which implement a number of generalized N-body routines. These could be used to enhance the astroML examples in the following cases:

Faster kernel density estimation
Faster cross-matching on the sphere
Faster correlation function computation
