nltk.cluster.Dendrogram

class nltk.cluster.Dendrogram(items=[])[source]

Represents a dendrogram, a tree with a specified branching order. This must be initialised with the leaf items, then iteratively call merge for each branch. This class constructs a tree representing the order of calls to the merge function.
