This study generalizes hierarchical clustering by relaxing nested partitions to consecutive object classes. This approach offers new methods for analyzing proximity data and generalizing additive tree representations.

Area of Science:

  • Computational statistics
  • Data analysis
  • Machine learning

Background:

  • Hierarchical clustering generates nested partitions, representable by ultrametrics.
  • Existing methods rely on strict nested structures for data representation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a generalized representation relaxing the nested partition requirement.
  • To introduce methods for fitting and visualizing these generalized structures.
  • To extend this generalization to additive tree representations.

Main Methods:

  • Relaxing the nested partition constraint to require consecutive objects within classes.
  • Developing methods for fitting the generalized structure to proximity matrices.
  • Exploring alternative graphical representation strategies.
