Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In hierarchical clustering, what is the result of a dendrogram?
Correct Answer: Dendrogram ek visual representation hai clusters ka aur unke merge hone ki distances ka.
  • Step 1: Understand that hierarchical clustering is a method used to group similar items together.
  • Step 2: Know that a dendrogram is a tree-like diagram that shows how these groups (clusters) are formed.
  • Step 3: Realize that the dendrogram displays the clusters on the vertical axis and the distance or dissimilarity between them on the horizontal axis.
  • Step 4: Observe that as you move up the dendrogram, clusters are merged together based on their similarity.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the dendrogram helps visualize the relationships between clusters and the order in which they are combined.
