[BioC] Affinity propagation clustering in R

[Laurent Gautier]

Peter,

Since the algorithm is not specific to bioinformatics, you may have more 
answers by asking about it on the r-help mailing list.

I also see that the authors provide MATLAB code. Porting it, preferably 
with the handling of sparse matrices since the package Matrix is 
becoming a "recommended package" with R-2.8, should also be possible 
(from a quick glance, the code is looking documented and nicely formatted).
