Fuzzy investment decision support for brownfield redevelopment
Tato disertační práce se zaměřuje na problematiku investování a podporu rozhodování pomocí moderních metod. Zejména pokud jde o analýzu, hodnocení a výběr tzv. brownfieldů pro jejich redevelopment (revitalizaci). Cílem této práce je navrhnout univerzální metodu, která usnadní rozhodovací proces. Proces rozhodování je v praxi komplikován též velkým počet relevantních parametrů ovlivňujících konečné rozhodnutí. Navržená metoda je založena na využití fuzzy logiky, modelování, statistické analýzy, shlukové analýzy, teorie grafů a na sofistikovaných metodách sběru a zpracování informací. Nová metoda umožňuje zefektivnit proces analýzy a porovnávání alternativních investic a přesněji zpracovat velký objem informací. Ve výsledku tak bude zmenšen počet prvků množiny nejvhodnějších alternativních investic na základě hierarchie parametrů stanovených investorem.This dissertation focuses on decision making, investing and brownfield redevelopment. Especially on the analysis, evaluation and selection of previously used real estates suitable for commercial use. The objective of this dissertation is to design a method that facilitates the decision making process with many possible alternatives and large number of relevant parameters influencing the decision. The proposed method is based on the use of fuzzy logic, modeling, statistic analysis, cluster analysis, graph theory and sophisticated methods of information collection and processing. New method allows decision makers to process much larger amount of information and evaluate possible investment alternatives efficiently.
3DScape: three dimensional visualization plug-in for Cytoscape
3DScape is the first plug-in which enables three-
dimensional network visualization in Cytoscape. The extra dimension is useful in accommodating, visualizing, and distinguishing larger networks with multiple crossing connections.
Special features in 3DScape include 3D layout algorithms, mapping onto 3D models and animation effects on a series of expression data. 3DScape is available at http://www.rendware.co
MetaboCraft: building a Minecraft plugin for metabolomics
Motivation:
The rapid advances in metabolomics pose a significant challenge in presentation and interpretation of results. Development of new, engaging visual aids is crucial to advancing our understanding of new findings.
Results:
We have developed MetaboCraft, a Minecraft plugin which creates immersive visualisations of metabolic networks and pathways in a 3-D environment and allows the results of user experiments to be viewed in this context, presenting a novel approach to exploring the metabolome
Towards Scalable Visual Exploration of Very Large RDF Graphs
In this paper, we outline our work on developing a disk-based infrastructure
for efficient visualization and graph exploration operations over very large
graphs. The proposed platform, called graphVizdb, is based on a novel technique
for indexing and storing the graph. Particularly, the graph layout is indexed
with a spatial data structure, i.e., an R-tree, and stored in a database. In
runtime, user operations are translated into efficient spatial operations
(i.e., window queries) in the backend.Comment: 12th Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC 2015
RDF Knowledge Graph Visualization From a Knowledge Extraction System
In this paper, we present a system to visualize RDF knowledge graphs. These
graphs are obtained from a knowledge extraction system designed by
GEOLSemantics. This extraction is performed using natural language processing
and trigger detection. The user can visualize subgraphs by selecting some
ontology features like concepts or individuals. The system is also
multilingual, with the use of the annotated ontology in English, French, Arabic
and Chinese
Mapping Tasks to Interactions for Graph Exploration and Graph Editing on Interactive Surfaces
Graph exploration and editing are still mostly considered independently and
systems to work with are not designed for todays interactive surfaces like
smartphones, tablets or tabletops. When developing a system for those modern
devices that supports both graph exploration and graph editing, it is necessary
to 1) identify what basic tasks need to be supported, 2) what interactions can
be used, and 3) how to map these tasks and interactions. This technical report
provides a list of basic interaction tasks for graph exploration and editing as
a result of an extensive system review. Moreover, different interaction
modalities of interactive surfaces are reviewed according to their interaction
vocabulary and further degrees of freedom that can be used to make interactions
distinguishable are discussed. Beyond the scope of graph exploration and
editing, we provide an approach for finding and evaluating a mapping from tasks
to interactions, that is generally applicable. Thus, this work acts as a
guideline for developing a system for graph exploration and editing that is
specifically designed for interactive surfaces.Comment: 21 pages, minor corrections (typos etc.
SgpDec : Cascade (de)compositions of finite transformation semigroups and permutation groups
We describe how the SgpDec computer algebra package can be used for composing and decomposing permutation groups and transformation semigroups hierarchically by directly constructing substructures of wreath products, the so called cascade products.Final Accepted Versio
Using noun phrases extraction for the improvement of hybrid clustering with text- and citation-based components. The example of “Information Systems Research”
The hybrid clustering approach combining lexical and link-based similarities suffered for a long time from the different properties of the underlying networks. We propose a method based on noun phrase extraction using natural language processing to improve the measurement of the lexical component. Term shingles of different length are created form each of the extracted noun phrases. Hybrid networks are built based on weighted combination of the two types of similarities with seven different weights. We conclude that removing all single term shingles provides the best results at the level of computational feasibility, comparability with bibliographic coupling and also in a community detection application
