hierarchical clustering

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.10129
Pattern recognition in which objects are linked together by use of an appropriate measure of distance between pairs of objects, and a linkage criterion, which specifies the dissimilarity of sets as a function of the pairwise distances between objects.
Notes:
  1. Distance measures include Euclidean distance, Mahalanobis distance and city-block distance.
  2. Linkage criteria include single linkage, complete linkage.
