Is there any interest in an implementation of OPTICS [1] for
sklearn.cluster?
As part of our thesis work we've extended the cluster package to include
the OPTICS algorithm which returns an ordering and reachability distances
for the input samples. We're also planning on extracting actual clusters by
using various heuristics; e.g. using the method described in [2].
