    Notes: Abstract A crucial step in global optimization algorithms based on random sampling in the search domain is decision about the achievement of a prescribed accuracy. In order to overcome the difficulties related to such a decision, the Bayesian Nonparametric Approach has been introduced. The aim of this paper is to show the effectiveness of the approach when an ad hoc clustering technique is used for obtaining promising starting points for a local search algorithm. Several test problems are considered.

    Notes: Abstract An algorithm to classify data points on the sphere in distinct cluster groups is defined. The characteristics of the cluster groups and the rule for assigning data to the groups are related to a continuous differentiable density estimation. The modes of the estimated density are assumed to be representative of the groups; data points are then assigned to the mode reached by the steepest ascent. The major advantage of this procedure is its sensitivity in detecting cluster groups independently of their geometry and configuration. As a consequence, the procedure is capable of handling orientation data that may be arranged in girdles.

    Notes: Abstract One objective of the aerial radiometric surveys flown as part of the U.S. Department of Energy's National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) program was to ascertain the spatial distribution of near-surface radioelement abundances on a regional scale. Some method for identifying groups of observations with similar γ-ray spectral signatures and radioelement concentration values was therefore required. It is shown in this paper that cluster analysis can identify such groups with or without a priori knowledge of the geology of an area. An approach that combines principal components analysis with convergentk-means cluster analysis is used to classify 6991 observations (each observation comprising three radiometric variables) from the Precambrian rocks of the Copper Mountain, Wyoming area. This method is compared with a convergentk-means analysis that utilizes available geologic knowledge. Both methods identify four clusters. Three of the clusters represent background values for the Precambrian rocks of the area, and the fourth represents outliers (anomalously high214Bi). A segmentation of the data corresponding to “geologic reality” as interpreted by other methods has been achieved by perceptive quantitative analysis of aerial radiometric data. The techniques employed are composites of classical clustering methods designed to handle the special problems presented by large data sets.

    Notes: Abstract To evaluate the provenance of glacial till, the trace element content of magnetite was used. Magnetite was present in all known rock types and all till samples in the area investigated. By using fuzzy-set theory it was possible to group samples of magnetite taken from bedrock into relatively homogeneous and geologically meaningful groups and also, by fuzzy classification, to relate the till samples to the rocks in such a way that the relative contribution of each rock type to the till is estimated. Each rock and till sample is assigned a membership value between 0 and 1 for each rock type. The membership values, for a certain rock type in the till, are then interpolated by kriging onto maps. Magnetites from skarns associated with sulfide ores especially are rather distinct, and so a map of such membership values for till unveils all known ore deposits some 1–5 km “downstream”in the general direction of the ice flow. Other anomalies show up which cannot be related to hitherto known ores or mineralizations.

    Notes: Abstract The borehole slotting method previously proposed by Gordon and Reyment for two boreholes may be extended to three or more boreholes, but soon becomes computationally intractable. We propose another method based on the mixture model of cluster analysis, the computational labor of which increases linearly with the number of boreholes. This method produces profiles of the unknown strata to which the individual boreholes are easily matched by the two-borehole slotting method.
