  • Abstract
    The mathematical formulation of clustering problems is considered. An attempt is made to define and discover an abstract structure from the data on the basis of finitely many observations that are assumed to be in R2 using Euclidean distance as the dissimilarity measure. A consistent estimation and classification estimation procedure is provided for compact regions in R2 using a minimal spanning tree
