We describe a parallel iterative least squares solver named \texttt{LSRN} that is based on random normal projection. \texttt{LSRN} computes the min-length solution to $\min_{x \in \mathbb{R}^n} \|A x - b\|_2$, where $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m…

Cluster analysis requires many decisions: the clustering method and the implied reference model, the number of clusters and, often, several hyper-parameters and algorithms' tunings. In practice, one produces several partitions, and a final…
