Description: Implementation of the BRIk, FABRIk and FDEBRIk algorithms 
        to initialise k-means. These methods are intended for the 
        clustering of multivariate and functional data, respectively.
        They make use of the Modified Band Depth and bootstrap to 
        identify appropriate initial seeds for k-means, which are 
        proven to be better options than many techniques in the 
        literature. Torrente and Romo (2021) <doi:10.1007/s00357-020-09372-3>
        It makes use of the functions kma and kma.similarity, from the 
        archived package fdakma, by Alice Parodi et al.
