 * The clustering is based on an Index object that assigns training
 * points to the centroids. Therefore, at each iteration the centroids
 * are added to the index.
 *
 * On output, the centoids table is set to the latest version
 * of the centroids and they are also added to the index. If the
 * centroids table it is not empty on input, it is also used for
 * initialization.
 *
 * To do several clusterings, just call train() several times on
 * different training sets, clearing the centroid table in between.
