The Genie algorithm (Gagolewski, 2021 <DOI:10.1016/j.softx.2021.100722>) is a robust and outlier-resistant hierarchical clustering method (Gagolewski, Bartoszuk, Cena, 2016 <DOI:10.1016/j.ins.2016.05.003>). This package features its faster and more powerful version. It allows clustering with respect to mutual reachability distances, enabling it to act as a noise point detector or a version of HDBSCAN* that can identify a predefined number of clusters. The package also features an implementation of the Gini and Bonferroni inequality indices, external cluster validity measures (e.g., the normalised clustering accuracy, the adjusted Rand index, the Fowlkes-Mallows index, and normalised mutual information), and internal cluster validity indices (e.g., the Calinski-Harabasz, Davies-Bouldin, Ball-Hall, Silhouette, and generalised Dunn indices). The Python version of genieclust is available via PyPI
