Let’s have some fun

You have learnt how about how to make clusters using the hierarchical clustering algorithm. Let’s use that knowledge to play around with clusters. Again we will be using the example of education in Indian states.

Given below is a data set on the education status of Indian states.

You can download the data set and run the hierarchical algorithm on this. You can try to make the clusters on different attributes. 

You can see the effect of various elements of the hierarchical clustering on the clusters formed.

For the purpose of creating the above visualisation, we have cleaned the data to include only the 2 factors under consideration. You can download the file below.
