Graphs as Structural Models The Application of Graphs and Multigraphs in Cluster Analysis

The advent of the high-speed computer with its enormous storage capabilities enabled statisticians as well as researchers from the different topics of life sciences to apply mul­ tivariate statistical procedures to large data sets to explore their structures. More and more, methods of graphical repr...
