Title:Flattening a Hierarchical Clustering through Active Learning


		
This paper studies an interesting theoretical question of clustering using two data sources: a hierarchy and interactive queries on link constraints. The reviewers appreciate the fact that the algorithm can achieve sharp query complexity guarantees under challenging noisy settings. The only weakness of the paper is motivation - what is a practical scenario where we have these two sources of data?
