Jarvis-Patrick Clustering #116

Closed joshspeagle closed 5 years ago

joshspeagle commented 5 years ago

Johannes has an implementation of an alternative clustering scheme that may be more robust than the one I'm currently using. If possible, I should try to include this as either the default (or at least an alternative) option.

Based on #109.

joshspeagle commented 5 years ago

As mentioned in #109, the implementation is a bit slow. Given that the benefits don't seem to be super pressing at the moment, I'm going to close this for now. I'm happy to re-open this at a later date if there's a lot of interest in adding this in from other users or if the current ellipsoid decomposition algorithm performs quite poorly "in the wild".
