Lance Norskog commented on MAHOUT-899:
--------------------------------------
Suggestion on sampling: use reservoir sampling instead of "first N". With a
fixed seed.
Other ideas:
* make edges directed based on distance from centroid. Given (n1, n2, e) and n1
is farther from the centroid than n2, make the edge point from n1 -> n2. This
creates a cool partial ordering.
* add node/edge weights based on whatever is appropriate in the algorithm.
* add node weight based on distance.
* if vectors are NamedVector add the name as a node attribute.
I find Gephi baffling, but I'm sure an expert would find these cool additions.

> When running the cluster dumper, or outputting values to a file for display
> purposes, it is useful to not have to deal with all the points per cluster.
> This issue will add the ability to specify a maximum number of points to
> output per cluster in the cluster dumper.
