clump

Clustering algorithms.

Algorithms

Quickstart

[dependencies]
clump = "0.5.2"

use clump::{Dbscan, Kmeans};

let data = vec![
    vec![0.0, 0.0],
    vec![0.1, 0.1],
    vec![10.0, 10.0],
    vec![11.0, 11.0],
];

// K-means: returns labels (default: squared Euclidean)
let labels = Kmeans::new(2).with_seed(42).fit_predict(&data).unwrap();
assert_eq!(labels[0], labels[1]);
assert_ne!(labels[0], labels[2]);

// DBSCAN: discovers clusters from density (default: Euclidean)
let labels = Dbscan::new(0.5, 2).fit_predict(&data).unwrap();

Kmeans::fit returns KmeansFit with centroids, which supports predict on new points. Dbscan::fit_predict assigns noise points to clump::NOISE; use fit_predict_with_noise for Option labels.

Zero-copy flat input

All algorithms accept &impl DataRef. Pass Vec<Vec<f32>> or use FlatRef for zero-copy flat buffers:

use clump::{FlatRef, Kmeans};

let flat = vec![0.0f32, 0.0, 0.1, 0.1, 10.0, 10.0, 10.1, 10.1];
let data = FlatRef::new(&flat, 4, 2);
let labels = Kmeans::new(2).with_seed(42).fit_predict(&data).unwrap();

Streaming clustering

use clump::MiniBatchKmeans;

let mut mbk = MiniBatchKmeans::new(3).with_seed(42);
mbk.update_batch(&batch1).unwrap();
mbk.update_batch(&batch2).unwrap();
// Centroids available via mbk.centroids()

Constrained clustering

use clump::{CopKmeans, Constraint};

let constraints = vec![
    Constraint::MustLink(0, 1),
    Constraint::CannotLink(0, 2),
];
let labels = CopKmeans::new(2)
    .with_seed(42)
    .fit_predict_constrained(&data, &constraints)
    .unwrap();

Correlation clustering

use clump::{CorrelationClustering, SignedEdge};

let edges = vec![
    SignedEdge { i: 0, j: 1, weight: 1.0 },   // similar
    SignedEdge { i: 0, j: 2, weight: -1.0 },   // dissimilar
];
let result = CorrelationClustering::new().fit(3, &edges).unwrap();
let labels = result.labels;

Also see edges_from_distances to build signed edges from a distance matrix.

Distance metrics

All algorithms are generic over DistanceMetric. Built-in: SquaredEuclidean, Euclidean, CosineDistance, InnerProductDistance, CompositeDistance. Use with_metric on any algorithm to swap. Custom metrics: implement DistanceMetric (one method: fn distance(&self, a: &[f32], b: &[f32]) -> f32).

Features

Optional features: parallel (Rayon), gpu (Metal k-means, macOS), serde, ndarray (Array2 conversions), simd (NEON/AVX2/AVX-512 distance).
