genie: Fast, Robust, and Outlier Resistant Hierarchical Clustering
Includes the reference implementation of Genie - a hierarchical
clustering algorithm that links two point groups in such a way that
an inequity measure (namely, the Gini index) of the cluster sizes
does not significantly increase above a given threshold.
This method most often outperforms many other data segmentation approaches
in terms of clustering quality as tested on a wide range of benchmark
datasets. At the same time, Genie retains the high speed of the single
linkage approach, therefore it is also suitable for analysing larger data sets.
For more details see (Gagolewski et al. 2016 <doi:10.1016/j.ins.2016.05.003>).
For an even faster and more feature-rich implementation, including,
amongst others, noise point detection, see the 'genieclust' package.
