In this paper we apply the principles of Exploratory Sequential Data Analysis (ESDA) to simulation results analysis. We replicate a resource consumption simulation of occupants in a building and analyze the results using an open-source ESDA tool called UberTagger previously only used in the human-computer interaction (HCI) domain. We demonstrate the usefulness of ESDA by applying it to a hotel ...

Zoonoses are infectious diseases of animals that can be transmitted to humans. Human dirofilariosis (caused by Dirofilaria repens and Dirofilaria immitis) are among the helminthic zoonoses most frequently diagnosed in Europe. Indeed, human infections with Dirofilaria parasites are diagnosed with increasing frequency in many European countries and are currently included in the socalled emerging ...

This paper presents the application of Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA) and Kriging from GIS (ArcGIS8.3) in disease mapping through the analysis of hepatitis B in China. The research shows that geostatistical analysis techniques such as Kriging and ESDA have a good effect in disease mapping. Kriging methods can express properly the spatial correlation. Furthermore, unlike model-based me...

This paper describes a decade’s worth of evolution of integrating software to support exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA) where there are multiple measured attributes. The multivariate graphics tools we use are XGobi, and more recently, GGobi. The paper is divided into two parts. In the first part, we review early experiments in software linking for ESDA, which used XGobi, different Geogra...

Use of Electrostatic Detection Apparatus in evaluating documents for hidden indentations creates ozone. Ozone can cause respiratory irritation and breathing difficulty. Ozone discharge was measured for an hour during continuous operation at two different locations. Results indicated that continuos use can generate ozone concentrations that will exceed the permissible exposure limit mandated by ...

An attempt is made to develop a new method other than based on electrostatic principle as used in Electrostatic detection Apparatus (ESDA) for deciphering indented writing in forensic investigations. Simulated indented samples were examined under various light sources and using image enhancement tools. The developed method is not effect by humidity variations as in ESDA. No need of cascade for ...

CDM test system and verification method of ESDA and JEDEC standards have been studied. There are several different items. They can be categorized into 5 major items, which are charging system, discharging system, verification module, waveform verification, and classification level. Regarding waveform verifications at each stress level, ESDA system provides higher peak current whereas lower rise...

An extended spectral domain approach (ESDA) is applied to evaluate the scattering parameter of laterally slotted coaxial antenna for hyperthermia treatment. The results calculated by ESDA are in good agreement with that by Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation. Computational labor of the present method is far lighter than that of FEM, and the method is suitable for the iterative computation th...

Human-computer interaction (HCI) investigators must consider the sequential nature of interaction and must often weigh behavioral, cognitive, and social factors when studying and designing today's increasingly complex systems. In many cases, laboratory experimentation is inappropriate and formal modeling intractable; instead, observational data analysis is frequently the only appropriate empiri...

OBJECTIVES China has experienced a sharply increasing rate of human brucellosis in recent years. Effective spatial monitoring of human brucellosis incidence is very important for successful implementation of control and prevention programmes. The purpose of this paper is to apply exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA) methods and the empirical Bayes (EB) smoothing technique to monitor county-...
