Testing of clustering

A set X of points in /spl Rfr//sup d/ is (k,b)-clusterable if X can be partitioned into k subsets (clusters) so that the diameter (alternatively, the radius) of each cluster is at most b. We present algorithms that by sampling from a set X, distinguish between the case that X is (k,b)-clusterable and the case that X is /spl epsiv/-far from being (k,b')-clusterable for any given 0
