A Constraint-Based Approach to Constructing Continuous Cartograms
We present a new constraint-based continuous area cartogram construction method that is unique in its ability to preserve essential cues for recognition of region shapes. It automatically achieves desired region areas while maintaining correct map topology. The algorithm is compared with a number of existing methods, and results are shown to be superior in both accuracy and preservation of shap...
متن کاملA New Method for Generating Continuous Bivariate Distribution Families
Recently, it has been observed that a new method for generating continuous distributions, T - X family, can be quite effectively used to analyze the data in one dimension. The aim of this study is to generalize this method to two dimensional space so that the marginals would have T - X distributions. So, several examples and properties of this family have been presented. As ...
متن کاملA New Construction Method for Circle Cartograms and Its Application
An area cartogram is a transformed map on which areas of regions are proportional to statistical data values; it is considered to be a powerful tool for the visual representation of statistical data. One of the most familiar cartograms is a circle (or circular) cartogram, on which regions are represented by circles. Dorling first proposed a circle cartogram construction algorithm in 1996 accord...
متن کاملConstructing a New Monetary Condition Index for Iran
Reliable measures of the size and direction of changes in monetary policy are very crucial for examining the effects of monetary policy on the economy. Monetary Condition Index (MCI) can be used as a tool to assess the stance of monetary policy. This index is defined as the weighted average of different monetary transmission mechanism relative to their values in a base period. The weights in MC...
متن کاملA New Method for Constructing Classifier Ensembles
Usage of recognition systems has found many applications in almost all fields. However, Most of classification algorithms have obtained good performance for specific problems; they have not enough robustness for other problems. Combination of multiple classifiers can be considered as a general solution method for pattern recognition problems. It has been shown that combination of classifiers ca...
