    We introduce a new Bayesian model for hierarchical clustering based on
    a prior over trees called Kingman's coalescent.  We develop novel
    greedy and sequential Monte Carlo inferences which operate in a
    bottom-up agglomerative fashion.  We show experimentally the
    superiority of our algorithms over others, and demonstrate our
    approach in document clustering and phylolinguistics.
