This paper presents a simple divide-and-conquer algorithm for computing the prime tree decomposition of a two-structure. The algorithm runs in \(O\left(n^{2}\right)\) time, when \(n\) is the number of nodes of the two-structure. A directed or undirected graph is a special case of a two-structure, an
We present a procedure for the identiÿcation of clusters in multivariate data sets, based on the comparison between the k nearest neighbors graph, G k , and the minimal spanning tree, MST. Our key statistic is the random quantity k := the smallest k such that G k contains the MST. Under regularity a
