What is hierarchical clustering and how does it work?

Hierarchical clustering is a method of cluster analysis that seeks to build a hierarchy of clusters. It can be divided into two types: agglomerative (bottom-up) and divisive (top-down). In agglomerative clustering, each data point starts in its own cluster, and pairs of clusters are merged as one moves up the hierarchy. In divisive clustering, all data points start in one cluster, and splits are performed recursively as one moves down the hierarchy.
