1. A method for classifying data, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving input data for classification;
defining one or more transformations of the input data;
applying energy minimization to the one or more transforms of the input data;
producing a rate of change in energy in response to energy minimization; and
classifying the input data using the rate of change in energy.

Abstract
An analyzer/classifier tool (100) for data comprises use of an energy minimization process (120) with data transformed by an input process (110) into one or more input matrices. The data to be analyzed/classified is processed by an energy minimization technique such as individual differences multidimensional scaling (IDMDS) to produce at least a rate of change of stress/energy. Using the rate of change of stress/energy and possibly other IDMDS output, a back end process (130) analyzes and classifies data through patterns recognized within the data.
