Abstract base classes for all DSC (Data Stream Clusterer) and DSC\_R classes.
The DSC and DSC_R classes cannot be instantiated
(calling DSC() or DSC_R() produces errors),
but they serve as a base class from which other DSC classes
inherit.
Class DSC provides several generic functions that can
operate on all DSC subclasses:
print(), plot(), nclusters() to
get the current number of clusters,
get_centers() to get the cluster centers,
and get_weights() to get the cluster weights
(if implemented). get_centers() and get_weights()
are typically overwritten by subclasses of DSC. DSC_R
provides these functions for R-based DSC implementations.
Since DSC objects often contain external pointers, regular saving
and reading operations will fail. Use saveDSC() and readDSC()
which will serialize the objects first appropriately.
