Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-1045:
-----------------------------------
Nota Bene: Double.MIN_VALUE is *not* the smallest double value. It's the
smallest *positive* double value. Initialize max variables of this type to
Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY and min variables to Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY.

> Key: MAHOUT-1045
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1045
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Clustering
> Affects Versions: 0.6, 0.7, 0.8
> Environment: Several environments and data sets
> Reporter: Pat Ferrel
> Fix For: 0.8
>
>
> With real world crawl data the Intra-cluster density from ClusterEvaluator is
> almost always NaN. The CDbw inter-cluster density is almost always 0. I have
> also seen several cases where CDbw fails to return any results but have not
> tracked down why yet.
> I have sent a link to an 8G data set that reproduces these errors to Jeff
> Eastman.
