Kokkuvõte	Bayesian hierarchical clustering is a probabilistic agglomerative algorithm that builds a tree of nested cluster merges using Bayesian model comparison at each step. Rather than minimising a geometric linkage criterion, it evaluates at every candidate merge whether the data from two clusters are better explained by a single combined model or by two separate models, yielding a statistically principled dendrogram.	Hierarchical clustering is an unsupervised method that groups observations into nested clusters and draws the result as a dendrogram, so the number of clusters need not be fixed in advance. Its agglomerative form rests on the objective-function grouping criterion introduced by Joe Ward in 1963.
