Randall Scarberry updated MATH-584:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: kmeans_plus_plus.patch

Noticed that one of the KMeanPlusPlusClusterer tests got caught in an infinite 
loop with my patched version, because of extremely small distances.  

Apply this patch instead -- it ensures an exit from the while loop.


> KMeansPlusPlusClusterer incorrectly selects initial cluster centers and is 
> unnecessarily slow

> The chooseInitialClusters() method declares sum as an int, when it should be 
> double.  It also is quite slow because it contains a lot of unnecessary 
> computation.  I'll attached a patch which corrects the problems.
> I found the problems while comparing an optimized implementation of KMeans++ 
> I've been working on with the one in commons math.
