Detailed Description

Compute and return the memberships and minimum distances of a set of input points with respect to the an input set of cluster centers.

The membership ID of the ith sample sample(:,i) is determined by computing the distance of the sample from each cluster and choosing the cluster ID j whose center(:,j) has the minimum distance from the sample among all clusters.
This minimum squared distance is output in disq(:,i).
The metric used within this generic interface is the Euclidean distance.

Parameters

[in,out]	membership	: The output (or input/output) scalar or vector of shape `(1:nsam)` of type `integer` of default kind IK, containing the membership of each input sample in `sample` from its nearest cluster `center`, such that `cluster(membership(i))` is the nearest cluster center to the `i`th sample `sample(:, i)` at a squared-distance of `disq(i)`. If the optional input argument `changed` is missing, then `membership` has `intent(out)`. If the optional input argument `changed` is present, then `membership` has `intent(inout)`. On input, `membership` must contain the old cluster membership of the input sample.
[out]	disq	: The output scalar or vector of shape `(1:nsam)` of the same type and kind as the input argument `sample`, containing the Euclidean squared distance of each input sample in `sample` from its nearest cluster `center`.
[in]	sample	: The input scalar, vector, or matrix of, type `real` of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., RK, RK32, RK64, or RK128), containing the sample of `nsam` points in a `ndim`-dimensional space whose memberships and minimum distances with respect to the input `center`s must be computed. If `sample` is a scalar and `center` is a vector of shape `(1 : ncls)`, then the input `sample` must be the coordinate of a single sample in (univariate space) whose distance from `ncls` cluster `center`s must be computed. If `sample` is a vector of shape `(1 : ndim)` and `center` is a matrix of shape `(1 : ndim, 1 : ncls)`, then the input `sample` must be a single sample (in `ndim`-dimensional space) whose distance from `ncls` cluster `center`s must be computed. If `sample` is a vector of shape `(1 : nsam)` and `center` is a vector of shape `(1 : ncls)`, then the input `sample` must be a collection of `nsam` points (in univariate space) whose distances from `ncls` cluster `center`s must be computed. If `sample` is a matrix of shape `(1 : ndim, 1 : nsam)` and `center` is a matrix of shape `(1 : ndim, 1 : ncls)`, then the input `sample` must be a collection of `nsam` points (in `ndim`-dimensional space) whose distances from `ncls` cluster `center`s must be computed.
[in]	center	: The input vector of shape `(1:ncls)` or matrix of shape `(1 : ndim, 1 : ncls)` of the same type and kind as the input argument `sample`, containing the set of `ncls` cluster centers (centroids) with respect to which the sample memberships and minimum distances must be computed.
[out]	changed	: The output scalar of type `logical` of default kind LK that is `.false.` if and only if the input values for `membership` and `disq` do not change for any* of the input `sample`. In other words, a single membership update is sufficient to set the value of `changed` to `.true.` on output. (optional. If missing, the arguments `membership` and `disq` have `intent(out)` and both will be computed afresh.)

Possible calling interfaces ⛓

Warning: The condition ubound(center, rank(center)) > 0 must hold for the corresponding input arguments.
The condition ubound(sample, rank(sample)) == ubound(disq, 1) must hold for the corresponding input arguments.
The condition ubound(sample, rank(sample)) == ubound(membership, 1) must hold for the corresponding input arguments.
The condition ubound(sample, 1) == ubound(center, 1) .or. rank(sample) == 0 .or. rank(center) == 1 must hold for the corresponding input arguments.
These conditions are verified only if the library is built with the preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.; The pure procedure(s) documented herein become impure when the ParaMonte library is compiled with preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
By default, these procedures are pure in release build and impure in debug and testing builds.

Remarks: This generic interface implements one of the two major steps involved in Kmeans clustering.

Visualization of the benchmark output ⛓

Benchmark moral ⛓ The procedures under the generic interface setMember compute the new membership under two different scenarios.

When the input argument changed is missing, the memberships are computed afresh and no comparison with any old membership values is done by the algorithm.
Consequently, any such comparisons would have to be done externally to the procedure by the user, which requires another pass over the membership values for a comparison.
When the input argument changed is present, the memberships are computed afresh but before overwriting the old values, they are compared against them to detect if any memberships change at all and if so, changed = .true. on output.

From the benchmark results above, it appears that when membership comparison with old values is desired, letting the procedure to perform the comparison (by presenting the optional argument changed) is significantly slower than an external comparison of memberships by the user.
However, the difference is relevant only for small number of clusters involved (1 : 4) and the difference become negligible for more number of clusters.
Where is this situation relevant? Within the Kmeans algorithm this situation repeatedly occurs.
Additionally, note that the above benchmark does not include the cost of maintaining two (old and new) copies of cluster memberships which could potentially lead to additional allocation costs if it happens repeatedly, e.g., within the Kmeans algorithm.
