"""
The K-means clusterer starts with k arbitrary chosen means then allocates
each vector to the cluster with the closest mean. It then recalculates the
means of each cluster as the centroid of the vectors in the cluster. This
process repeats until the cluster memberships stabilise. This is a
hill-climbing algorithm which may converge to a local maximum. Hence the
clustering is often repeated with random initial means and the most
commonly occurring output means are chosen.
