has_converged

Given two consecutive numbers in a sequence, return <code>TRUE</code> if the
relative change is positive but less than the given tolerance.

Detection of anomalous space-time clusters using the scan
statistics methodology. Focuses on prospective surveillance of data streams,
scanning for clusters with ongoing anomalies. Hypothesis testing is made
possible by Monte Carlo simulation. Allévius (2018) <doi:10.21105/joss.00515>.
