Hi Francis.
No. It is highly non-trivial for most distance functions to do k-means as
the computation of the mean has to be replaced by a different computation.

If you know how to do that, implementing k-means in pure numpy is not all that hard.

This question comes up quite a lot. Maybe we should do a faq or something.

Cheers,
Andy

Hi guys,

Is there is simple way to change the distance function used in the kmeans implementation?

Thanks,

Francis
