How can we search for new physics when we only vaguely know what it should look like? How can we perform an unbiased yet data-driven search? If we see apparently anomalous events in our data, how can we quantify their “interestingness” a posteriori? We present an analysis strategy (sleuth) that simultaneously addresses each of these questions, and we demonstrate its application to over thirty e...

The sleuth-like style and lucid writing certainly make this book an enjoyable read. Many explanations are framed by relevant historical context and tales of mathematicians whose use of experimental mathematics helped them gain insights into difficult problems. Although it was never intended to be a course textbook, it could be used as a supplementary text. Many of the chapters are short, and sh...

This paper is the result of an investigation into applying statistical tools and methodologies to the discovery of digital evidence. Multiple statistical methods were reviewed; the two most useful are presented here. It is important to note that this paper represents an inquiry into the value of applied mathematical analysis to digital forensics investigations. Readers are encouraged to explore...

Hızlı nüfus artışının kentlerde oluşturduğu kaos ortamının yönetilebilir ve kontrol edilebilir olması gerekir. Kentlerde plan kararlarının uygulanmasında önemli bir yere sahip olan kentsel büyüme simülasyon modelleri bu planların uygulanabilirliği açısından önem kazanmaktadır. Kentlerdeki büyümenin incelenmesinde kullanılan hücresel otomat (HO) temelli modeller arasında da SLEUTH yazılımı en ço...

land use change is driven by interaction in space and time between humans and the environment that can be captured by computer simulation models (veldkamp and verburg, 2004). in the last few decades, land use change models have played an important role in understanding the causes, mechanisms and consequences of land use dynamics. sleuth is an open source cellular automata based land use change ...

A global, model-independent search for high-pT exotic phenomena is presented using 927 pb of CDF II data. The search algorithms employed in this analysis are Vista and Sleuth. These proceedings focus on Vista, including a description of the method and a summary of results. PACS. 12.60.-i Models beyond the standard model

The SLEUTH model (slope, landuse, exclusion, urban extent, transportation and hillshade), formerly called the Clarke Cellular Automaton Urban Growth Model, was developed for and tested on various cities in North America, including Washington, DC, and San Francisco. In contrast, this research calibrated the SLEUTH model for two European cities, the Portuguese metropolitan areas of Lisbon and Por...
