Hierarchical clustering groups data into a multilevel cluster tree or dendrogram. If your data is hierarchical, this technique can help you choose the level of clustering that is most appropriate for your application.
cluster | Construct agglomerative clusters from linkages |
clusterdata | Construct agglomerative clusters from data |
cophenet | Cophenetic correlation coefficient |
inconsistent | Inconsistency coefficient |
linkage | Agglomerative hierarchical cluster tree |
pdist | Pairwise distance between pairs of observations |
squareform | Format distance matrix |
