Description

Hello,

I am new to pygeoda. I am testing the SKATER algorithm and I find out that the summary stats do not coincide with those returned by the software. It appears to me that under "Total **within-cluster** sum of squares" the displayed value corresponds to the **between-cluster** sum of squares. The actual total within-cluster sum of squares does not show.
Would you confirm this?
Thanks for your help

Research direction

Reproduce the reported SKATER summary statistics in pygeoda and compare the displayed within-cluster and between-cluster sums of squares. Trace the SKATER summary-statistics output through the C++ libgeoda backend and its Python-facing result; done means confirming the statistic's definition and correcting the value or documenting that it is correct.
