## Abstract For the thousands of chemicals continuously released into the environment, it is desirable to make prospective assessments of those likely to be persistent. Widely distributed persistent chemicals are impossible to remove from the environment and remediation by natural processes may tak

β¦ Synopsis
This paper provides a multivariate approach to binary segmentation in order to deal with more response variables. Splitting criteria are proposed to grow decision trees with multivariate classiΓΏcation/ prediction. These are derived as extensions of criteria used in two-stage binary segmentation. The proposed methodology can be fruitfully performed not only to deΓΏne decision rules for new cases but also to explore dependency in multivariate data. The feasibility of the method and the interpretation of the ΓΏnal decision trees are discussed in a practical example using a survey of the Bank of Italy.
