Clustering algorithms in one of the area in data mining and it can be classified into partition, hierarchical, density based and grid based. Therefore, in this paper we do survey and review four major hierarchical clustering algorithms called CURE, ROCK, CHAMELEON and BIRCH. The obtained state of the art of these algorithms will help in eliminating the current problems as well as deriving more robust and scalable algorithms for clustering.}, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {9}, number = {10}, year = {2015}, pages = {2194 - 2199}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10002625}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/106}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 106, 2015}, }
