Abstract
We often use fuzzy graph to analyze inexact information such as sociogram structure ([1] and [2]). Concerning the hierarchical cluster analysis of a fuzzy graph ([3], [4] and [5] ), the number of clusters may have to be decided in the actual cluster analysis. In other word, we woud like to decide the optimal level with a partition tree. Concerning this problem, while AIC method in statistical analysis has been designed by us ([6] and [10]), we will now propose a fuzzy decision method which is based on the evaluation function paying attention to the size and number of clusters at each level.
