Question: Record X 1 X 2 X 3 X 4 R 1 3 5 1 2 R 2 1 4 2 5 R 3 2 2

Record X1 X2 X3 X4
R13512
R21425
R32243
R42314
R54132
To Keep the calculations simple, for this analysis we will not rescale the data.
Consider a clustering that combines R1 and R2 as Cluster A and groups the other records as Cluster B.
5. Compute the centroid of Cluster A.
6. Compute the centroid of Cluster B.
7. What is the distance between Cluster A and Cluster B if the linkage method is Centroid and Distance is measured in the Euclidean sense?
8. What is the distance between Cluster A and Cluster B if the linkage method is Minimum and Distance is measured in the Manhattan sense?
9. What is the average Intra-Cluster Distance for Cluster A?
10. What is the average Intra-Cluster Distance for Cluster B?
