The Leaves of a Tree
Authors/Creators
Description
In this article, models based on quantitative analysis,
physical geometry and regression analysis are established, by using
analytic hierarchy process analysis, fuzzy cluster analysis, fuzzy
photographic and data fitting. The reasons of various leaf shapes
among different species and the differences between the leaf shapes on
same tree have been solved by using software, such as Eviews, VB and
Matlab. We also successfully estimate the leaf mass of a tree and the
correlation with the tree profile.
