[jira] [Commented] (MAHOUT-887) Bottom Up Clustering

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-887?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13150234#comment-13150234 ] 

Paritosh Ranjan commented on MAHOUT-887:
----------------------------------------

To begin with, I will start with CanopyClustering merging clusters having single point till the clusters (centroids) are within the user specified distance.I think it will be the smallest step towards Bottom Up Clustering.

Is anyone having any thought on how to proceed better on this? If not, I will proceed and provide a patch on this.

> Bottom up clustering is achieved by starting with small clusters/single points and then merging clusters recursively which are closer than a specified control constraint.
