Could someone explain to me how this cluster command works in the backend? I couldn't find any resource that explain the technique/algorithm behind this cluster command.

How does it cluster the matches (termlist/termset/ngramset)?
How is t be calculated? It doesn't seem to be probability based.
What kind of clustering algorithm it uses?

It would be the best if someone can explain the full algorithm for this cluster command. Much thanks
