The description of complex configuration is a difficult issue. We present a powerful technique for cluster identification and characterization. The scheme is designed to treat with and analyze the experimental and/or simulation data from various meth
ods. Main steps are as follows. We first divide the space using face or volume elements from discrete points. Then, combine the elements with the same and/or similar properties to construct clusters with special physical characterizations. In the algorithm, we adopt administrative structure of hierarchy-tree for spatial bodies such as points, lines, faces, blocks, and clusters. Two fast search algorithms with the complexity are realized. The establishing of the hierarchy-tree and the fast searching of spatial bodies are general, which are independent of spatial dimensions. Therefore, it is easy to extend the skill to other fields. As a verification and validation, we treated with and analyzed some two-dimensional and three-dimensional random data.
