Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Introducing the Semantic Graph
A number of excellent topic modeling libraries exist in Python today. BERTopic and Top2Vec are two of the most popular. Both use sentence-transformers to encode data into vectors, UMAP for dimensionality reduction and HDBSCAN to cluster nodes.

Introduction to K-Means Clustering
Working in spatial data science, I rarely find applications where k-means is the best tool. The problem is that it is difficult to know how many clusters you can expect on maps. Is it 5, 500, or 10,000? Here HDBSCAN [1] shines because it will cluster _and_ select the most suitable number of clusters, to cut the single linkage cluster tree.

New clustering algorithms like DBSCAN and OPTICS?
You might be interested in HDBSCAN which has several implementations, but the python implelementation is commonly used. That implementation makes use of algorithmic changes to significantly improve the computational complexity. Some more recent variations on that include the gamma-linkage variant which is quite powerful.

DBSCAN ALternatives?
The OPTICS algorithm is in the latest versions of sklearn and is a reasonable alternative to DBSCAN -- it has much the same theoretical foundation, but can cope with variable density clusters better. If you are willing to step outside sklearn itself there is also HDBSCAN which is a hierarchical clustering version of DBSCAN and is in sklearn-contrib so should be compatible with an sklearn pipeline.

[D] Good algorithm for clustering big data (sentences represented as embeddings)?
Maybe use (H)DBScan which I think should work also for huge datasets. I don't think there is a ready to use clustering with unbuild cosine similarily metrics, and you also won't be able to precompute the 100k X 100k dense similarity matrix. The only way to go on this is to L2 normalize your embeddings, then the dot product will be the angular distance as a proxy to the cosine similarily.
