The Problem
Note that this is not the classical enclosing circle algorithm.
Rather, we seek to minimize the sum of enclosing circles containing at least n points.
Thus, multiple circles are allowed and inclusion in multiple circles is possible.
Parameters
iterations_per_k: the number of iterations to attempt for eachkto find minimum for thatkn: the minimum number of data points that must be included in a circle
Overview
TODO: explain range of k
TODO: explain difficulty of port
TODO: add initial cut documentation
