Methods used in pattern recognition and cluster analysis are applied to investigate the spatial distribution of OB associations and emission regions in the LMC. For our analysis we used the catalogue of associations of Lucke and Hodge (1970) and the catalogue of emission regions of Davies et al. (1976).
