Suppose that you are to allocate a number of automatic teller
machines (ATMs) in a given region so as to satisfy a number of
constraints. Households or places of work may be clustered so that
typically one ATM is assigned per cluster. The clustering, however,
may be constrained by two factors: (1) obstacle objects, i.e.,
there are bridges, rivers, and highways that can affect ATM
accessibility, and (2) additional user-specified constraints, such
as each ATM
should serve at least 10,000 households. How can the ? -means
clustering algorithm be
modified for quality clustering under both constraints?

Constraint algorithms can be modified in the following aspects to allow for constraint-based clustering
