Download or read book Visual Analytic Technique and System of Spatiotemporal semantic Events written by Chao Ma and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data containing geographical locations and time that associates with natural language texts, such as geotagged tweets, travel blogs, and crime reports are generally recognized as spatiotemporal semantic events. Many research fields have tried to gain valuable insights from these data and there have many techniques and methods are introduced in past decade. In computer science field, the study of spatiotemporal-semantic events in visualization and visual analytics is one of the hottest research topics. Text mining and data mining provide abundant methods to find meaningful knowledge and insights from semantic information of these data. Even though, there exist many contributions in this research field, there still lack of visually intuitive applications and approaches that allow frontline users, such as police, health officers, and social workers to freely navigate, effectively utilize and analyze their spatiotemporal semantic data, especially in community level. In this thesis, multiple visual analytics (VA) solutions are introduced. NeighborVis, CLEVis, and a new lens based visual interaction technique, GTMapLens to help frontline users harness semantic-rich spatiotemporal data. The development of all applications is fulfilled the requirement analysis and initial prototype evaluation. Text mining, topic modeling, hierarchical geospatial data indexing and many new visualization methods are studied and discussed along with those VA systems. The visual design is guided by requirement analysis with a cohort of multidisciplinary domain experts. Evaluation is presented with real world datasets to show the usability and effectiveness.

Book Space Time Integration in Geography and GIScience

Download or read book Space Time Integration in Geography and GIScience written by Mei-Po Kwan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-18 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space-time analysis is a rapidly growing research frontier in geography, GIS, and GIScience. Advances in integrated GPS/GIS technologies, the availability of large datasets (over time and space), and increased capacity to manage, integrate, model and visualize complex data in (near) real time, offer the GIS and geography communities extraordinary opportunities to begin to integrate sophisticated space-time analysis and models in the study of complex environmental and social systems, from climate change to infectious disease transmission. This volume specifically focuses on research frontiers, comparative research, and research and application interactions in this field in the US and China, arguably the two most dynamic loci for this work today. The contributions to this book, by top researchers in China and the US, productively highlight the differences and similarities in approaches and directions for space-time analysis in the two countries. In light of the recent rapid progress in GIScience research on space-time integration in both countries, the book’s focus on research frontiers in these two countries will attract great interest in both countries and in other parts of the world as well as among related disciplines. In addition, the book also explores the impact of collaborative research and publications underway in this area between the US and China and will provide an overview of these collaborative efforts and programs. This book will not only be of interest to university-based GIS researchers and students, but also to those interested in this new area of research and applications like researchers and developers in business, internet mapping and GIS and location based services (LBS).

Book Advances in Spatio Temporal Segmentation of Visual Data

Download or read book Advances in Spatio Temporal Segmentation of Visual Data written by Vladimir Mashtalir and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a number of promising models and methods for adaptive segmentation, swarm partition, permissible segmentation, and transform properties, as well as techniques for spatio-temporal video segmentation and interpretation, online fuzzy clustering of data streams, and fuzzy systems for information retrieval. The main focus is on the spatio-temporal segmentation of visual information. Sets of meaningful and manageable image or video parts, defined by visual interest or attention to higher-level semantic issues, are often vital to the efficient and effective processing and interpretation of viewable information. Developing robust methods for spatial and temporal partition represents a key challenge in computer vision and computational intelligence as a whole. This book is intended for students and researchers in the fields of machine learning and artificial intelligence, especially those whose work involves image processing and recognition, video parsing, and content-based image/video retrieval.
