Q: In hierarchical clustering, what is the result of a dendrogram?
Solution:
A dendrogram visually represents the arrangement of clusters and the distances at which they are merged.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
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.
