1 <h1>Parallel clustering with k-medoids algorithm</h1>
2
3 <p>This C program runs the k-medoid algorithm on several subsets of one (presumably big) dataset.
4 The computed medoids are then merged iteratively, until we get a final set of k centers.</p>

8 <p>The folder "communication/" contains latex sources (and generated pdf files) of a short paper submitted
9 to the Journées de Statistique in Rennes, France (2014), and also the slides presented at this event.</p>

11 <p>The other folder contains all the C code; but not the EDF (french electricity company) datasets, because they
12 are not public. Since the (de)serialization process in code/src/TimeSeries/ is tailored for these data,
13 it is necessary to adapt this small part of the code to use any other custom time-series files.</p>
