Hierarchical Clustering graph

The Hierarchical Clustering graph shows a cluster analysis based on agglomerative nesting, which groups samples in clusters based on similarity.

Each sample starts a single cluster. Pairs of clusters are then successively merged until all clusters are merged into a dendrogram.
