Trevor Grant commented on MAHOUT-2028:
--------------------------------------

This sounds good to me, probably would go in with the "algorithms framework"

"beginner issue" might be a little ambitious, but if you want to give it a shot 
go ahead.

Anything I can do to help?

> What about implementing clustering evaluation measure like Silhouette 
> indexing? We could use one or more of the currently implemented distance 
> measures and some clustering algorithm, like k-means, and start measuring the 
> goodness of that clustering, i.e. with Silhouette in this case.
