Peter Schrott commented on FLINK-1731:
--------------------------------------
As discussed with [~aalexandrov] The initial centroids are given to the kmeans
within the parameter map. For convenience fluent syntax is added.
> Add kMeans clustering algorithm to machine learning library
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-1731
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1731
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Machine Learning Library
> Reporter: Till Rohrmann
> Assignee: Alexander Alexandrov
> Labels: ML
>
> The Flink repository already contains a kMeans implementation but it is not
> yet ported to the machine learning library. I assume that only the used data
> types have to be adapted and then it can be more or less directly moved to
> flink-ml.
> The kMeans++ [1] and the kMeans|| [2] algorithm constitute a better
> implementation because the improve the initial seeding phase to achieve near
> optimal clustering. It might be worthwhile to implement kMeans||.
