Alexander Alexandrov commented on FLINK-1731:
---------------------------------------------

I would go with a {{DataSet}} for the centroids as well. That said, we can 
reduce syntax at the client side by providing either

- an implicit converter that {{Seq\[A\] => DataSet\[A\]}} (needs to be part of 
the Flink Scala API, could be already there), or
- an overloaded {{setCentroids(Seq\[A\])}} setter.

> The Flink repository already contains a kMeans implementation but it is not 
> yet ported to the machine learning library. I assume that only the used data 
> types have to be adapted and then it can be more or less directly moved to 
> flink-ml.
> The kMeans++ [1] and the kMeans|| [2] algorithm constitute a better 
> implementation because the improve the initial seeding phase to achieve near 
> optimal clustering. It might be worthwhile to implement kMeans||.
