hi conrad,

that looks interesting however this implementation is not compatible with
the scikit license ( GPLv3 ) so if we want it we'll have to reimplement it.
I'll take a look at the paper to see how hard this would be.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. Business sense. IT sense. Common sense.
