Hi Bill,

A simple algorithm is the bond energy algorithm - references include

and I have a program for it in Fortran (sorry...!  It's quite simple and 
would not be difficult for someone to recode) at
http://astro.u-strasbg.fr/~fmurtagh/mda-sw/splus
(My multivariate software entry page is
http://astro.u-strasbg.fr/~fmurtagh/mda-sw
)

I hope this helps.  The association with using a wavelet transform was
F. Murtagh, J.-L. Starck and M. Berry, "Overcoming the curse of 
dimensionality in clustering by means of the wavelet transform", The 
Computer Journal, 43, 107-120, 2000.

Best,

Subject: sorting datafiles
Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2006 16:36:48 -0500

We are looking for an algorithm that sorts a datafile by columns and rows
simulataneously.  We implemented this a few years ago but I can't remember
where the code might have gone (I'm guessing it left with my memory).

I believe Fionn used something like this to rearrange datafiles to be
'image-like' for wavelet trasnform (Fionn, ring a bell).

Would appreciate any help on finding the algorithm.

Thanks
Bill
