[5.0, 8.0],
[8.0, 8.0],
[1.0, 0.6],
[9.0, 11.0],
];
// Fit K-Means with 2 clusters
let kmeans = KMeansBuilder::new(2)
.max_iter(100)
.tolerance(1e-4)
.fit(data.view())?;
println!("Labels: {:?}", kmeans.labels);
println!("Centroids:\n{}", kmeans.centroids);
// Predict new points
let new_data = array![[0.0, 0.0], [10.0, 10.0]];

println!("Predictions: {:?}", predictions);
Ok(())

];
let dbscan = DBSCANBuilder::new()
.eps(3.0)
