sampled data, plain distance function - openbrian/districtbuilder GitHub Wiki
Here's the first result i've produced. The data is sampled 1/100 for performance reasons. There are 11 districts. Cost function used is distance function to the cluster point. 8 iterations of k-means were used.
The districts look "shrink-wrapped" because i used sampling and the concave hull operation.
I've learned a few things from these results.
- Using normal distance function in the k-mean function doesn't make sense, when it produces a cluster that crosses the Chesapeake Bay.
- This obviously needs refinement, because it splits Richmond into 2 parts.
