Weights for data points

[SirHodlington]

Is it possible to use weights for data points?
I currently add duplicates to create "weights" for my data points. Seems very inefficient. Is there a better way to do it?

Hi,

I'm not sure if it will work, but one way you could try is by creating a new distance function.

You can see many examples here:

There are in fact many distance functions I could have implemented.
This issue list some that are implemented in one python library: #6

Thanks

EDIT: Solved. It can be done by calculating the distance matrix. Just one entry per identical data point and for the distances the value is distance/(weight of datapoint) instead of distance
Issue can be closed
