4452: 2397: 4468: 4459: 4117: 4428:. In the naive algorithm for agglomerative clustering, implementing a different linkage scheme may be accomplished simply by using a different formula to calculate inter-cluster distances in the algorithm. The formula that should be adjusted has been highlighted using bold text in the above algorithm description. However, more efficient algorithms such as the one described below do not generalize to all linkage schemes in the same way. 4443: 1946: 2392:{\displaystyle {\begin{array}{lllllll}D_{2}((a,b),c)&=&\min(D_{1}(a,c),D_{1}(b,c))&=&\min(21,30)&=&21\\D_{2}((a,b),d)&=&\min(D_{1}(a,d),D_{1}(b,d))&=&\min(31,34)&=&31\\D_{2}((a,b),e)&=&\min(D_{1}(a,e),D_{1}(b,e))&=&\min(23,21)&=&21\end{array}}} 4815:, and this information is sufficient to determine the clustering itself. As Sibson shows, when a new item is added to the set of items, the updated functions representing the new single-linkage clustering for the augmented set, represented in the same way, can be constructed from the old clustering in time 51:
In the beginning of the agglomerative clustering process, each element is in a cluster of its own. The clusters are then sequentially combined into larger clusters, until all elements end up being in the same cluster. At each step, the two clusters separated by the shortest distance are combined. The

In single-linkage clustering, the distance between two clusters is determined by a single pair of elements: those two elements (one in each cluster) that are closest to each other. The shortest of these pairwise distances that remain at any step causes the two clusters whose elements are involved to

This method tends to produce long thin clusters in which nearby elements of the same cluster have small distances, but elements at opposite ends of a cluster may be much farther from each other than two elements of other clusters. For some classes of data, this may lead to difficulties in defining

to construct the minimum spanning tree (but not the clustering) of the given items and distances. Then, applying Kruskal's algorithm to the sparse graph formed by the edges of the minimum spanning tree produces the clustering itself in an additional time

An alternative algorithm, running in the same optimal time and space bounds, is based on the equivalence between the naive algorithm and Kruskal's algorithm for minimum spanning trees. Instead of using Kruskal's algorithm, one can use
3117: 4369: 2974: 4409:. However, in single linkage clustering, the order in which clusters are formed is important, while for minimum spanning trees what matters is the set of pairs of points that form distances chosen by the algorithm. 31:. It is based on grouping clusters in bottom-up fashion (agglomerative clustering), at each step combining two clusters that contain the closest pair of elements not yet belonging to the same cluster as each other. 3889: 3880: 1693: 179: 1797: 2704: 2644: 347: 1544: 1124: 3732: 3662: 3569: 1341: 4954: 248: 4886: 4744: 4575: 4539: 3236: 695: 612: 864: 545: 303: 3476: 3220: 3188: 3161: 2817: 2763: 2731: 2469: 2427: 1938: 1902: 1867: 1840: 1571: 1368: 970: 730: 4983: 4915: 4842: 4813: 4684: 4604: 376: 996: 938: 912: 782: 756: 571: 456: 430: 2985: 4784: 4764: 4724: 4704: 4664: 4644: 4624: 4391: 4242: 4222: 4202: 4182: 4162: 4142: 3772: 3752: 3682: 3612: 3589: 1276: 1250: 1223: 1196: 1170: 886: 802: 503: 396: 268: 5069:
