///////////
// Changes made:
// 1. Added another parameter: number of populations
// 2. Added a hierarchical merging step based on density change between centroids of two hyper-regions
// 3. Picked the longest dimensions between the population centroids to judge whether the two parts should be merged
// 4. Removed checking time parameter
// 5. Output error to stderr
// 6. Fixed the bug of density threshold always = 3
// 7. Added another error (select_num_bin<min_grid) || (select_num_bin>max_grid) to STDERR
// 8. Fixed a bug for 2D data by using K=e*K
// 9. Added some header files, may not be necessary
// 10. Added a lower bound (at least two) for number of populations

/******************************************************** Main Function **************************************************/
//for normalized data, there are five variables:
//cluster_ID
//population_center
//grid_clusterID
//grid_ID
//grid_Center

//the same five variables exist for the original data
//however, the three IDs (cluster_ID, grid_ID, grid_clusterID) don't change in either normalized or original data
//also, data + cluster_ID -> population_center
//data + grid_ID -> grid_Center

/* what is the final output */
//the final things we want are grid_Center in the original data and grid_clusterID //or population_center in the original data
//Sparse grids will not be considered when computing the two centroids (centroids of grids and centroids of clusters)

/*  what information should select_bin output */
//the size of all IDs are unknown to function main because we only consider the events in dense grids, and also the number of dense grids
//is unknown, therefore I must use a prescreening to output 
//how many bins I should use
//the number of dense grids
//total number of events in the dense grids

/* basic procedure of main function */ 
//1. read raw file and normalize the raw file
//2. select_bin
//3. allocate memory for eventID_To_denseventID, grid_clusterID, grid_ID, cluster_ID. 
//4. call select_dense and merge_grids with grid_clusterID, grid_ID, cluster_ID.
//5. release normalized data; allocate memory for grid_Center and population_center
//6. output grid_Center and population_center using ID2Center together with grid_clusterID //from IDs to centers
