Concepts
Step 1: Understand what hierarchical clustering means. It is a method of grouping data points into a tree-like structure called a dendrogram.
Step 2: Learn about agglomerative clustering. This is a type of hierarchical clustering.
Step 3: Know that in agglomerative clustering, you start with each data point as its own cluster.
Step 4: Gradually merge the closest clusters together until all points are in one cluster or until a stopping criterion is met.
Step 5: Recognize that agglomerative clustering is commonly used because it is simple and effective for many types of data.
