NAVIGATION IN CYBERSPACE Using Multi-Dimensional Scaling to create three-dimensional navigational maps
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents results regarding the performance of multidimensional scaling (MDS) when used to create three-dimensional navigation maps. MDS aims at reducing high-dimensional space into low-dimensional landscapes. Combined with browsers which are capable of visualizing threedimensional object information by applying the conceptual basis of Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML), MDS opens new possibilities for cognitive receptive navigation. Web3D, a prototype implementation using MDS, reveals the potential of this idea.

Simulation of Smoke Emission from Fires in High-Rise Buildings Using the 3D Model Generated from 2-Dimensional Cadastral Data
Having a 3-Dimensional model of high-rise buildings can be used in disaster management such as fire cases to reduce casualties. The fundamental dilemma in 3D building modeling is the unavailability of suitable data sources. However, available cadastral 2D maps could be used as low-cost and attainable resources for 3D building modeling. Smoke will be a great threat to people's health during a f...

متن کاملPost-critical Behavior of Three- dimensional Composite Beams Near the Autoparametric Resonance under Flapwise Excitation
The bifurcation analysis of a composite beam subjected to harmonic flapwise base excitation is studied when the ratio of flapwise and chordwise internal resonances is 1:2. Results are obtained by the numerical solution of modulation equations. Chracteristics of the response are investigated in terms of time history, phase portraits diagrams and bifurcation diagram of poincare maps. It is observ...
متن کاملInteractive Visualization and Navigation in Large Data Collections using the Hyperbolic Space
We propose the combination of two recently introduced methods for the interactive visual data mining of large collections of data. Both, Hyperbolic Multi-Dimensional Scaling (HMDS) and Hyperbolic Self-Organizing Maps (HSOM) employ the extraordinary advantages of the hyperbolic plane (H2): (i) the underlying space grows exponentially with its radius around each point ideal for embedding high-dim...
