When faced with new data, we often conduct a cluster analysis to obtain a better understanding of the data's structure and the archetypical samples present in the data. This process often includes visualization of the data, either as a way…
There is often a mixture of very frequent labels and very infrequent labels in multi-label datatsets. This variation in label frequency, a type class imbalance, creates a significant challenge for building efficient multi-label…
Drawing connections between interesting groupings of data and their real-world meaning is an important, yet difficult, part of encountering a new dataset. A lay reader might see an interesting visual pattern in a chart but lack the domain…
In this paper, we propose a new measure for detecting overlap in multivariate Gaussian clusters. The aim of online learning from data streams is to create clustering, classification, or regression models that can adapt over time based on…
Clustering is widely used in unsupervised learning to find homogeneous groups of observations within a dataset. However, clustering mixed-type data remains a challenge, as few existing approaches are suited for this task. This study…
A natural approach to analyze interaction data of form "what-connects-to-what-when" is to create a time-series (or rather a sequence) of graphs through temporal discretization (bandwidth selection) and spatial discretization (vertex…
Traditional boxplots are widely used for summarizing and visualizing the distribution of numerical data, yet they exhibit significant limitations when applied to skewed or heavy-tailed distributions, often leading to misclassification of…
Determining the number of clusters is a central challenge in unsupervised learning, where ground-truth labels are unavailable. The Silhouette coefficient is a widely used internal validation metric for this task, yet its standard…
Visualizing data is often a crucial first step in data analytics workflows, but growing data sizes pose challenges due to computational and visual perception limitations. As a result, data analysts commonly down-sample their data and work…
Data analysts commonly utilize statistics to summarize large datasets. While it is often sufficient to explore only the summary statistics of a dataset (e.g., min/mean/max), Anscombe's Quartet demonstrates how such statistics can be…
Accurately estimating traffic variables across unequipped portions of a network remains a significant challenge due to the limited coverage of sensor-equipped links, such as loop detectors and probe vehicles. A common approach is to apply…
When forming a team or group of individuals, we often seek a balance of expertise in a particular task while at the same time maintaining diversity of skills within each group. Here, we view the problem of finding diverse and experienced…
We present new methods for multilabel classification, relying on ensemble learning on a collection of random output graphs imposed on the multilabel and a kernel-based structured output learner as the base classifier. For ensemble learning,…
An effective way to reduce clutter in a graph drawing that has (many) crossings is to group edges that travel in parallel into \emph{bundles}. Each edge can participate in many such bundles. Any crossing in this bundled graph occurs between…
With the continuous increase in the computational power and resources of modern high-performance computing (HPC) systems, large-scale ensemble simulations have become widely used in various fields of science and engineering, and especially…
There have been rapid developments in model-based clustering of graphs, also known as block modelling, over the last ten years or so. We review different approaches and extensions proposed for different aspects in this area, such as the…
We propose a flexible class of estimates for "common change in the mean" sets in spatio-temporal data. We rely on a scan type approach by subdividing the spatial observations into suitable overlapping regions to which classical CUSUM…
We present a novel approach to visually locate bodies of research within the sciences, both at each moment of time and dynamically. This article describes how this approach fits with other efforts to locally and globally map scientific…
Problem statement: Clustering has a number of techniques that have been developed in statistics, pattern recognition, data mining, and other fields. Subspace clustering enumerates clusters of objects in all subspaces of a dataset. It tends…
Plotting solution sets for particular equations may be complicated by the existence of turning points. Here we describe an algorithm which not only overcomes such problematic points, but does so in the most general of settings. Applications…
