It can only handle small datasets
It requires prior knowledge of the number of clusters
It is not sensitive to noise
It cannot produce a dendrogram
Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
Which of the following is a limitation of hierarchical clustering?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand what hierarchical clustering is. It is a method of grouping data points into a tree-like structure based on their similarities.
Step 2: Recognize that hierarchical clustering involves calculating distances between all pairs of data points.
Step 3: Realize that as the number of data points increases, the number of distance calculations increases significantly, making the process slower.
Step 4: Conclude that because of this complexity, hierarchical clustering is not efficient for large datasets and is better suited for smaller ones.
