=============================================================
Bisecting K-Means and Regular K-Means Performance Comparison
=============================================================
This example shows differences between Regular K-Means algorithm and Bisecting K-Means.
While K-Means clusterings are different when increasing n_clusters,
Bisecting K-Means clustering builds on top of the previous ones. As a result, it
tends to create clusters that have a more regular large-scale structure. This
difference can be visually observed: for all numbers of clusters, there is a
dividing line cutting the overall data cloud in two for BisectingKMeans, which is not
present for regular K-Means.
