Methods used in pattern recognition and cluster analysis are applied to investigate the spatial distribution of the star forming regions. The fractal dimension of these structures is deduced. The new 21 cm, radio continuum (1.4 GHz) and IRAS surveys reveal scale structures of 700 pc to 1500 pc being identical with the optically identified star forming sites. The morphological structures delineated by young stars reflect physical parameters which determine the star formation in this galaxy. The formation of spiral arm filaments is understandable by stochastic selfpropagating star formation processes.
