Hierarchical Clustering

We use Hierarchical clustering to build a hierarchy of clusters to achieve such a bottom-up approach in which its cluster starts every observation. It follows a greedy manner; initially, the pairwise distance matrix is constructed, and then, the clusters of the pair with the closest distance are merged iteratively.

x_train = RealFeatures(f_train)
d = EuclideanDistance(x_train, x_train)
h = Hierarchical(3, d)
d = h.get_merge_distances()
cp = h.get_cluster_pairs()
