Requirements for the strength matrix C are:

        of connection matrix that describes connections between supernodes.

    Notes
    -----
    This method relaxes with weighted-Jacobi in order to approximate the
    matrix inverse.  A normalized change of energy is then used to define
    point-wise strength of connection values.  Specifically, let v be the
    approximation to the i-th column of the inverse, then

    (S_ij)^2 = <v_j, v_j>_A / <v, v>_A,

    where v_j = v, such that entry j in v has been zeroed out.  As is common,
    larger values imply a stronger connection.

    Current implementation is a very slow pure-python implementation for
    experimental purposes, only.
