+## Bisecting k-means
+
+
+Bisecting k-means is a kind of [hierarchical
clustering](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_clustering) using a
+divisive (or "top-down") approach: all observations start in one cluster,
and splits are performed recursively as one
+moves down the hierarchy.
+
+Bisecting K-means can often be much faster than regular K-means, but it
will generally produce a different clustering.
+
+`BisectingKMeans` is implemented as an `Estimator` and generates a
`BisectingKMeansModel` as the base model.
+
+The implementation in ML has the following parameters:
+
+* *k*: the desired number of leaf clusters (default: 4). The actual number
could be smaller if there are no divisible leaf clusters.
