Comparing different hierarchical linkage methods on toy datasets — scikit-learn 1.8.dev0 documentation

This example shows characteristics of different linkage methods for hierarchical clustering on datasets that are “interesting” but still in 2D.

The main observations to make are:

• single linkage is fast, and can perform well on non-globular data, but it performs poorly in the presence of noise.

• average and complete linkage perform well on cleanly separated globular clusters, but have mixed results otherwise.

• Ward is the most effective method for noisy data.

While these examples give some intuition about the algorithms, this intuition might not apply to very high dimensional data.

Generate datasets. We choose the size big enough to see the scalability of the algorithms, but not too big to avoid too long running times

    n_samples=n_samples, factor=0.5, noise=0.05, random_state=170

rng = np.random.RandomState(170)
no_structure = rng.rand(n_samples, 2), None

# Anisotropicly distributed data
X, y = datasets.make_blobs(n_samples=n_samples, random_state=170)
transformation = [[0.6, -0.6], [-0.4, 0.8]]

aniso = (X_aniso, y)

# blobs with varied variances
varied = datasets.make_blobs(
    n_samples=n_samples, cluster_std=[1.0, 2.5, 0.5], random_state=170
