摘要
The description of complex configuration is a difficult issue.We present a powerful technique for cluster identification and characterization.The scheme is designed to treat and analyze the experimental and/or simulation data from various methods.The main steps are as follows.We first divide the space using face or volume elements from discrete points.Then,we combine the elements with the same and/or similar properties to construct clusters with special physical characterizations.In the algorithm,we adopt an administrative structure of a hierarchy-tree for spatial bodies such as points,lines,faces,blocks,and clusters.Two fast search algorithms with the complexity lnN are generated.The establishment of the hierarchy-tree and the fast searching of spatial bodies are general,which are independent of spatial dimensions.Therefore,it is easy to extend the method to other fields.As a verification and validation,we applied this method and analyzed some two-dimensional and three-dimensional random data.
