BICO Documentation

BICO [1] is a data stream algorithm for the k-means problem that combines the data structure of the SIGMOD Test of Time award winning algorithm BIRCH [2] with the theoretical concept of coresets for clustering problems. It is implemented within the clustering library CluE. This documentation belongs to an extract from CluE with all files necessary to compile and run BICO. The algorithm itself is implemented in Bico / bico.h.
