چکیده

Target motion analysis (TMA) visualisation is used by naval ships to locate targets around ownship when more accurate methods such as active sonar are not viable. TMA utilises an array of data, the main source being passive sonar, and results in an almost infinite number of possible solutions. These solutions must be filtered by the TMA operator to identify the most probable or hazardous solutions. Current TMA visualisation solutions do not effectively utilise visualisation theory and require an operator to take a mechanical instead of cognitive approach to target tracking. This paper presents a novel approach to target motion analysis visualisation based in established visualisation literature. A variety of visualisation techniques have been explored through this research, with a focus on reducing cognitive load of the operator. These visualisation techniques were evaluated through “expert review” and the results presented.

Spatial Data Correlation: An interactive 3D visualisation tool for correlating the motion cature data streams from different devices

We have developed an interactive, three-dimensional visualisation that plots individual motion capture data streams so they can be visually inspected concurrently to yield a unified, multimodal view of a complex problem. The primary objective in this study is to facilitate analysis of groups of putatively correlated time series with large numbers of data points. Our unique contribution is that ...

Interactive visualisation techniques for large time-dependent data sets

Flow visualisation is an attractive topic in data visualisation, offering great challenges for research. Very large data sets must be processed, consisting of multivariate data at large numbers of grid points, often arranged in many time steps. Recently, the steadily increasing performance of computers again has become a driving force for new advances in flow visualisation, especially in techni...

The influence of respiratory motion on dose distribution of 3D-CRT and IMRT- A simulation study

Background: 3DCRT (three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy) and IMRT (intensity-modulated radiotherapy) has provided us with tools to delineate the radiation dose distribution of tumor targets. However, the precision of radiation can be compromised by respiratory motion, which usually limits the geometric and dosimetric accuracy of radiotherapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the imp...

Investigation of tumor motion influence on applied dose distribution in conventional proton therapy vs. IMPT a 4D Monte Carlo simulation study

Background: in radiation treatment of moving targets located in thorax region of patient body, the delivered dose does not match with the planned treatment, resulting in some over and under dosage in the tumor volume, as a function of motion magnitude and frequency. Several efforts have been done to investigate the target motion effects on dose distribution in the target and surrounding normal ...
