Is there a way to find mob spawner clusters from a seed?

By mob spawner clusters I mean: mob spawners that are close enough to each other so that a point between them where all are simultaneously active (within 16-block distance of the point) exists.
I'm pretty sure cubiomes is capable of this, but I'm not sure where to start. My initial idea is to just keep generating chunks around a block, check for clusters using those chunks and print if there is, go to the next block and repeat but I'm kind of skeptical about the performance of this plan
I’m pretty sure spawners are on population. That means they are not consistent for the same seed and depend on direction of travel to said spawner.
Correct, cubiomes can only find structures that do not depend on the 3D terrain because it's much faster this way, and spawners must always generate inside a "cave" so you could only get a list of possible spawner locations, and most of them will be wrong.
I recently made a tool to find spawner clusters but it only works if you pass it a pregenerated world, here:

If you have any questions or it doesn't work, open an issue in my repo to avoid spamming here.
But I have a question, does anyone know the algorithm to find the intersection of more than 2 spheres? I'm just bruteforcing all the possible points and it is fast enough, but I couldn't find the proper way to do it. 2 spheres is easy, it's (s1+s2)/2, but 3 spheres is not the "center of mass", it's somewhere around the intersection of the first 2...
I guess that's not an issue for cubiomes then. I'll close this. Thanks for the resources @Badel2 I'll definitely check it out

@gsquaredxc may I ask, where did you get this information from?
@Badel2 you don't want only 2-spheres intersection, you want N-spheres intersection, am I right?
