XY Chain

XY-Chain is an analysis algorithm using Locked which occurs in the concatenation of bivalues. The following figure shows the image of XY-Chain. Begin with bivalue's cell with a focused number a and concatenate bivalue cells. In the image diagram, they are connected with different numbers, but the same number may appear. It is assumed that a cell at the tip of a chain has the same number a as the starting cell. Candidate number a can be excluded in the cell related to the starting cell / leading cell.

XY-Chain sample. Two series are overlapped in the right figure.
