To cluster metabolites:
- for each metabolite
- compute number of similar metabolites
- rank from most to fewest neighbors
- for each ranked metabolite, take all its relatives out of the list
- continue until there are no metabolites left.
- you now have core metabolites representing architypes, together with their neighbors
- variant: modify the similiarity metric (default 0.5 dice)
