I Let dsingle, daverage be the dissimilarities between a generic pair of clusters I, J. As the names indicate, these dissimilarities are built using single linkage and
average linkage, respectively. Briefly ellaborate whether the following inequality holds or not:
d'single
daverage
II The following data are acidity measurements (in pH scale) of n = 5 soil samples. The variables measured are results obtained with litmus paper (1) and with
electric probe (x2), and the samples (individuals) are labelled as usual 1 to 5 from top to bottom.
x1 x2
6.77 6.49
6.48 6.83
6.37 6.09
6.11 6.63
6.62 6.76
With these data, perform agglomerative clustering using the euclidean metric and average linkage. In particular,
d) If the tree is cut at a height (distance) h = 0.27, how many clusters are formed at that value h and which sizes do they have?
