HDBSCAN\* is basically a DBSCAN implementation for varying epsilon values and therefore only needs the minimum cluster size as single input parameter.

The ``'eom'`` (Excess of Mass) cluster selection method then returns clusters with the best stability over epsilon.

Unlike DBSCAN, this allows to find clusters of variable densities without having to choose a suitable distance treshold first.

However, there are cases where we could still benefit from the use of an epsilon threshold.

A ``cluster_selection_epsilon`` value of 0 (the default value) always returns the original HDBSCAN\* results, either according to ``'eom'`` or ``'leaf'``.
