Fast flow-based algorithm for creating density-equalizing map projections
Cartograms are maps that rescale geographic regions (e.g., countries, districts) such that their areas are proportional to quantitative demographic data (e.g., population size, gross domestic product). Unlike conventional bar or pie charts, cartograms can represent correctly which regions share common borders, resulting in insightful visualizations that can be the basis for further spatial stat...
متن کاملUse of density equalizing map projections (DEMP) in the analysis of childhood cancer in four California counties.
In studying geographic disease distributions, one normally compares rates among arbitrarily defined geographic subareas (for example, census tracts), thereby sacrificing the geographic detail of the original data. The sparser the data, the larger the subareas must be in order to calculate stable rates. This dilemma is avoided with the technique of density equalizing map projections (DEMP). Boun...
متن کاملFast Algorithm for Creating Image-Based Stereo Images
The process that creates stereo images typically takes from 1.5 to 2 times longer than the algorithm for mono images. This paper presents a fast image-based algorithm for computing stereo images, that needs a little more time than the algorithm for mono images. The presented algorithm uses a single image with depth information (e.g. z-buffer) as an input and produces two images for left and rig...
متن کاملA model based, anatomy dependent method for ultra-fast creation of primary SPECT projections
Introduction: Monte Carlo (MC) is the most common method for simulating virtual SPECT projections. It is useful for optimizing procedures, evaluating correction algorithms and more recently image reconstruction as a forward projector in iterative algorithms; however, the main drawback of MC is its long run time. We introduced a model based method considering the eff...
متن کاملFast SFFS-Based Algorithm for Feature Selection in Biomedical Datasets
Biomedical datasets usually include a large number of features relative to the number of samples. However, some data dimensions may be less relevant or even irrelevant to the output class. Selection of an optimal subset of features is critical, not only to reduce the processing cost but also to improve the classification results. To this end, this paper presents a hybrid method of filter and wr...
