Statistical analysis of dwarf galaxies and their globular clusters in
  the Local Volume
  Morphological classification of dwarf galaxies into early and late type,
though can account for some of their origin and characteristics but does not
help to study their formation mechanism. So an objective classification using
Principal Component analysis together with K means Cluster Analysis of these
dwarf galaxies and their globular clusters is carried out to overcome this
problem. It is found that the classification of dwarf galaxies in the Local
Volume is irrespective of their morphological indices. The more massive (MV 0 <
-13.7) galaxies evolve through self-enrichment and harbor dynamically less
evolved younger globular clusters (GCs) whereas fainter galaxies (MV 0 > -13.7)
are influenced by their environment in the star formation process.
