Ebook: Trees and Proximity Representations (Wiley-Interscience Series in Discrete Mathematics and Optimization)

Describes the combinatorial analysis of data using trees as the model, and the use of this model in representing proximities. This technique is of great importance in many applications including such fields as computer science, decision theory, artificial intelligence, information theory, experimental sciences and social sciences. At each stage algorithms are provided as well as ready-to-use computer programs, written in Basic.
