---------------------------------------------
Hi Trevor. I'm new on Jira and I was a bit confused of all the different
labels. However, I'm studying a bit Mahout's architecture and I was thinking to
implement a set of algorithms for clustering evalation to put in a specific
package "clustering.evaluation"
> Silhoutte indexing for clustering evaluation
> --------------------------------------------

> Key: MAHOUT-2028
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-2028
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: Proposal
> Components: Algorithms, Clustering
> Affects Versions: 0.13.0, 0.14.0, 0.13.1, 0.13.2
> Reporter: Stefano Dalla Palma
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: beginner

> 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.
