really interesting!
is there some url/docs for more information or are this your own
thoughts - maybe for Ph.D thesis ?

In my humble opinion in R the package(Rpart) is good starting point
for this, but in fact you get no really rules. The result are more
sub-segmentation's which habit different with the classification (dependent)
variable. But you can formulate rules on the basis of the results in a
sophisticated way..........

Thanks!
It is for a PhD, but to this point I am still trying prove/disprove so there
is not documentation. That's why I need to get to grips with the statistical
analysis system.
