Claim 7:
8. The method of claim 3, wherein splitting the selected cluster into two clusters comprises:
determining a first cluster point by selecting a data point in the selected cluster that is farthest from a centroid of the cluster;
determining a second cluster point by selecting a data point farthest from the first cluster point;
generating a first cluster by including data points in the selected cluster that are closer to the first cluster point;
generating a second cluster by including data points in the selected cluster that are closer to the second cluster point;
determining a first centroid of the first cluster based on the data points in the first cluster and a second centroid of the second cluster based on the data points in the second cluster; and
updating the first cluster and the second cluster based on the first centroid and the second centroid.
