<p>Each component is successively removed
from the data set, a functional clustering of remaining species is built,
and the effect of this species remove on remaining species clustering
is evaluated by comparing the resulting species clustering
with the species clustering obtained with all species.
The perturbation is measured by using different clustering indices.</p>

datasets

Cluster together the components that make up an interactive
system on the basis of their functional redundancy
for one or more collective, systemic performances.
Plot the hierarchical tree of component clusters,
the modelled and predicted performances of component assemblages,
and other results associated with a functional clustering.
Test and prioritize the significance of the different components
that make up the interactive system,
of the different assemblages of components that make up the dataset,
and of the different performances observed on the component assemblages.
The method finds application in ecology, for instance,
where the system is an ecosystem, the components are organisms or species,
and the systemic performance is the production of biomass
or the respiration of the ecosystem.
The method is extensively described in
