// .NAME vtkKMeansStatistics - A class for KMeans clustering
//
// .SECTION Description
// This class takes as input an optional vtkTable on port LEARN_PARAMETERS 
// specifying initial  set(s) of cluster values of the following form:  
// <pre>
//           K     | Col1            |  ...    | ColN    
//      -----------+-----------------+---------+---------------
//           M     |clustCoord(1, 1) |  ...    | clustCoord(1, N)
//           M     |clustCoord(2, 1) |  ...    | clustCoord(2, N)
//           .     |       .         |   .     |        .
//           .     |       .         |   .     |        .
//           .     |       .         |   .     |        .
//           M     |clustCoord(M, 1) |  ...    | clustCoord(M, N)
//           L     |clustCoord(1, 1) |  ...    | clustCoord(1, N)
//           L     |clustCoord(2, 1) |  ...    | clustCoord(2, N)
//           .     |       .         |   .     |        .
//           .     |       .         |   .     |        .
//           .     |       .         |   .     |        .
//           L     |clustCoord(L, 1) |  ...    | clustCoord(L, N)
// </pre>
//
// Because the desired value of K is often not known in advance and the 
// results of the algorithm are dependent on the initial cluster centers, 
// we provide a mechanism for the user to test multiple runs or sets of cluster centers
// within a single call to the Learn phase.  The first column of the table identifies 
// the number of clusters K in the particular run (the entries in this column should be 
// of type vtkIdType), while the remaining columns are a 
// subset of the columns contained in the table on port INPUT_DATA.  We require that 
// all user specified clusters be of the same dimension N and consequently, that the 
// LEARN_PARAMETERS table have N+1 columns. Due to this restriction, only one request
// can be processed for each call to the Learn phase and subsequent requests are 
// silently ignored. Note that, if the first column of the LEARN_PARAMETERS table is not 
// of type vtkIdType, then the table will be ignored and a single run will be performed using
// the first DefaultNumberOfClusters input data observations as initial cluster centers.
//
// When the user does not supply an initial set of clusters, then the first 
// DefaultNumberOfClusters input data observations are used as initial cluster 
// centers and a single run is performed.
//
//
// This class provides the following functionalities, depending on the 
// mode it is executed in:
// * Learn: calculates new cluster centers for each run.  The output metadata on 
//   port OUTPUT_MODEL is a multiblock dataset containing at a minimum
//   one vtkTable with columns specifying the following for each run:
//   the run ID, number of clusters, number of iterations required for convergence, 
//   total error associated with the cluster (sum of squared Euclidean distance from each observation
//   to its nearest cluster center), the cardinality of the cluster, and the new
//   cluster coordinates.
//
// *Derive:  An additional vtkTable is stored in the multiblock dataset output on port OUTPUT_MODEL.
//   This table contains columns that store for each run: the runID, number of clusters, 
//   total error for all clusters in the run, local rank, and global rank.
//   The local rank is computed by comparing squared Euclidean errors of all runs with
//   the same number of clusters.  The global rank is computed analagously across all runs.
//
// * Assess: This requires a multiblock dataset (as computed from Learn and Derive) on input port INPUT_MODEL
//   and tabular data on input port INPUT_DATA that contains column names matching those
//   of the tables on input port INPUT_MODEL. The assess mode reports the closest cluster center
//   and associated squared Euclidean distance of each observation in port INPUT_DATA's table to the cluster centers for
//   each run in the multiblock dataset provided on port INPUT_MODEL.
//  
// The code can handle a wide variety of data types as it operates on vtkAbstractArrays 
// and is not limited to vtkDataArrays.  A default distance functor that
// computes the sum of the squares of the Euclidean distance between two objects is provided 
// (vtkKMeansDistanceFunctor). The default distance functor can be overridden to use alternative distance metrics.

// Sandia National Laboratories for implementing this class.
