I haven't yet gone thru ClusterDumper. However, ClusterBase would be having number of points to average out (pointTotal/numPoints as per kmeans) where as SoftCluster will have weighted point total. So, I am wondering how can we reuse ClusterBase here?

Thanks

yes. So that cluster dumper can print it out.

Hi Robin,

when you meant by reusing ClusterBase, are you planning to extend
ClusterBase in SoftCluster? For example, SoftCluster extends ClusterBase?

Thanks

I have been trying to convert FuzzyKMeans SoftCluster(which should be
ideally be named FuzzyKmeansCluster) to use the ClusterBase.

I am getting* the same center* for all the clusters. To aid the conversion
all i did was remove the center vector from the SoftCluster class and
reuse
the same from the ClusterBase. These are essentially making no change in
the
tests which passes correctly.

So I am questioning whether the implementation keeps the average center at
all ? Anyone who has used FuzzyKMeans experiencing this?
