Zusammenfassung:Techniques are disclosed for incremental agglomerative clustering of data, including but not limited to digital image data. Fewer than all of a plurality of existing digital image fingerprints are sampled from a first hierarchical data cluster of digital image fingerprints stored in a data storage device, the first hierarchical data cluster excluding a new digital image fingerprint. The new digital image fingerprint and the existing digital image fingerprints sampled from the first hierarchical data cluster are clustered to produce a second hierarchical data cluster of digital image fingerprints, the second hierarchical data cluster including the new digital image fingerprint. If a majority of the existing digital image fingerprints in the first hierarchical data cluster match the new digital image fingerprint, then the second hierarchical data cluster is mapped to the first hierarchical data cluster based on the determination.
