Description copied from interface: LinkageMethod

Compute combined linkage for two clusters.

Specified by:

combine in interface LinkageMethod

Parameters:

sizex - Size of first cluster x before merging

dx - Distance of cluster x to j before merging

sizey - Size of second cluster y before merging

dy - Distance of cluster y to j before merging

sizej - Size of candidate cluster j

dxy - Distance between clusters x and y before merging

Returns:

Combined distance
