public virtual ClusterHierarchical..::.Linkage Method { get; set; } |
Visual Basic (Declaration) |
---|
Public Overridable Property Method As ClusterHierarchical..::.Linkage |

Field Value
A ClusterHierarchical.Linkage identifying the clustering method to use.Remarks
By Default, Method = Linkage.Single.
Method | Description |
---|---|
Single | Single linkage (minimum distance). |
Complete | Complete linkage (maximum distance). |
AvgWithinClusters | Average distance within (average distance between objects within he merged cluster). |
AvgBetweenClusters | Average distance between (average distance between objects in the two clusters). |
Wards | Ward's method (minimize the within-cluster sums of squares). For Ward's method, the elements of dist are assumed to be Euclidean distances. |
