Abstract:A Robinson space is a dissimilarity space (X, d) (i.e., a set X of size n and a dissimilarity d on X) for which there exists a total order < on X such that x < y < z implies that d(x, z) ≥ max{d(x, y), d(y, z)}. Recognizing if a dissimilarity space is Robinson has numerous applications in seriation and classification. An mmodule of (X, d) (generalizing the notion of a module in graph theory) is a subset M of X which is not distinguishable from the outside of M , i.e., the distance from any point of X \ M to al… Show more
