Minimax linkage is popular in bioinformatics, because it provides prototypes for each cluster.
The objective is the "minimum maximum distance", i.e., choose the merge $C=A\cup B$ with the smallest $$\min_{c\in C} \max_{o\in C} d(c,o)$$ where this object $c$ can be seen as a cluster center, and the linkage score as a radius.
