`HierarchicalClustering` sounds good. We already have `SpectralClustering` as a class name so having `Clustering` in the class name is fine I think. Also do all the specialized hierarchical clustering algorithms put under that class umbrella will share a big enough common set of hyperparams? If not it might be better to keep independent classes for ward, single linkage, complete linkage and so on. -- Olivier http://twitter.com/ogrisel - http://github.com/ogrisel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
