What is Hierarchical Clustering
1.
During the iterative process the clusters are formed either by splitting one into two new clusters or by merging two clusters into new one.
Learn more in: E-Government Documents and Data Clustering
2.
A data mining method for gathering
hierarchical
structure when grouping related data via top down or bottom up approach.
Learn more in: Data Analytics in Industry 4.0: In the Perspective of Big Data
3.
This involves the recursive
clustering
of data points, which may be agglomerative or divisive. An agglomerative
clustering
method starts with each case in a separate cluster and then combines the clusters sequentially, reducing the number of clusters at each step until only one cluster is left.?The divisive
hierarchical clustering
starts with all objects in one cluster and then subdivides them into smaller pieces.

4.
Euclidean distance-based grouping techniques on data points to identify within-group similarities and between-group differences.

5.
The most common approach to
clustering
. The method proceeds sequentially, producing a nested assignment of objects into clusters. It is typically agglomerative, with cluster sizes increasing as the number of clusters decreases. At each step of the process, a
clustering
criterion based on a measure of proximity between groups must be computed to decide which groups of objects are to be joined together.

6.
Data driven statistical method used to place observations into groups (clusters) with a predetermined ordering from top to bottom. Each cluster contains “n” number of observations that are more similar between them than the ones contained in the other clusters.

7.
A method separates different data points to different clusters based on hierarchy and merge different clusters to one.

8.
The
hierarchical clustering
techniques produce a nested sequence of partition, with a single, all-inclusive cluster at the top and single clusters of individual points at the bottom.

9.
Hierarchical clustering
(HC) organizes data with a sequence of nested partitions, either from singleton clusters to a cluster including all individuals or vice versa.
Learn more in: Exploring the Unknown Nature of Data: Cluster Analysis and Applications
10.
It is to build a
hierarchical
decomposition of data in either bottom-up or top-down way. Generally a dendrogram is generated and a user may select to cut it at a certain level to get the clusters.
Learn more in: Data Clustering
11.
A
clustering
method that finds successive clusters using previously established clusters.
Hierarchical
algorithms can be agglomerative (bottom-up) or divisive (top-down). Agglomerative algorithms begin with each element as a separate cluster and merge them into successively larger clusters. Divisive algorithms begin with the whole set and proceed to divide it into successively smaller clusters.

12.
A data mining method for gathering
hierarchical
structure when grouping related data via top down or bottom up approach.
Learn more in: A Novel Approach to Segmentation Using Customer Locations Data and Intelligent Techniques
13.
Hierarchical clustering
is the process of creating a
hierarchical
decomposition of a data set.
Learn more in: Categorization of Data Clustering Techniques
14.
A
clustering
technique that iteratively collects or separates data points into clusters using a given linkage method to evaluate the distance between clusters.
