findbnodes: Finds pointers to the nodes of a level set tree

Description

Finds pointers to the nodes of a level set tree. The nodes are such that their excess mass is among "modenum" largest excess masses, and they start a new branch.

Usage

findbnodes(lst, modenum=1, num=NULL)

Arguments

lst

level set tree; a list of vectors. The list contains at least vectors "level", "volume", and "parent". For example, function "leafsfirst" computes a level set tree.

modenum

positive integer; the number of nodes whose pointers are computed

num

a technical parameter

Value

a vector of integers; pointers to the nodes of the level set tree
