How would you select the appropriate linkage method if the clusters in the data are known to have varying shapes and densities?
- By evaluating different linkage methods on the data
- By using Average Linkage
- By using Complete Linkage
- By using Single Linkage
When clusters have varying shapes and densities, it is advisable to evaluate different linkage methods to find the one that best captures the underlying structure. Experimentation with methods like Single, Complete, and Average Linkage, and evaluating them using validation metrics, visual inspection, or domain knowledge, will guide the selection of the most appropriate method for the data characteristics.
