Another drawback of SNN is that it does not cluster all data points, because it discards the non-core data points that are not within a radius of Eps of a core point (i.e., the noise points in [43]).
It uses the same concept of a core point as DBSCAN.
A border point has fewer than MinPts within ε (Eps), but is in the neighborhood of a core point p. A noise point is any point that is not a core point or a border point.
Core points have at least minPts in their neighborhood N ε (constrained by ε), whereas border points have less than minPts in their N ε, but are inside N ε of a core point.
Definition 2: A point, p is a border point if ∣{x∣d x, p)≤ε}∣of a core point.
Obviously the issue of freedom of expression is a core point".
That is the core point of "Peculiar Institution: America's Death Penalty in an Age of Abolition" by David Garland, which Justice Stevens writes about in his essay.
The article misses the core point of my amendment to the Millennium Challenge Corporation's financing schedule.

The targets set for the first period, 2008-12, gave a 13-year lead time at the time of signing; it would be foolish to quantify later targets before gaining more experience with the first.The commitments are not rigid and unachievable because of the extensive flexibility embodied precisely to accommodate American demands the core point of the argument that you attribute to me.
