Foil 14 Details of Clustering Algorithm
From Physical Optimization and Physical Computation CPSP713 Case studies in Computational Science -- Spring Semester 1996. byGeoffrey C. Fox
Use The Squared Distance Energy
Optimizing the free energy:
yields the solution for the centers of the clusters:
Note 1/b1/2 is distance scale at which clusters are observed
High temperature (small b) corresponds to coarse spatial resolution
