Linkage methods
In this exercise, you will produce hierarchical clustering models using different linkages and plot the dendrogram for each, observing the overall structure of the trees.
You'll be asked to interpret the results in the next exercise.

Istruzioni dell'esercizio
- Produce three hierarchical clustering models on
xusing the"complete","average", and"single"linkage methods, respectively. - Plot a dendrogram for each model, using titles of
"Complete","Average", and"Single", respectively.
