Abstract
A method of comparing dendrograms created by different references or algorithms displays individual dendrograms () on a screen in an overlapped yet distinguishable manner. The overlapped portions of the dendrograms are displaced vertically or horizontally from one another and indicated by different colors for individual dendrograms. A specified branch and elements hanging therefrom can be highlighted when displayed, such that differences in the manner in which individual elements of the overlapped dendrograms are clustered can be easily recognized.
