چکیده

A topological model is presented for complex data sets in which the attributes can be cast into a dichotomy. It is shown that the relative dominance of the two parts in such a dichotomy can be measured by the corresponding areas in its star plot. An optimization model is proposed to maximize the resolution of such a measure by choice of configuration of the attributes, as well as the angles among them. The approach is illustrated with the case of online auction markets, where there is a buyer-seller dichotomy as to whether conditions are favourable to buyers or sellers. An implementation of the methodology in a spreadsheet based DSS is demonstrated. Its ease of use is promising for diverse applications.

Maximum Resolution Topology for Multi-Attribute Dichotomies

The Star Plot approach to high-dimensional data visualization is applied to multiattribute dichotomies. It is observed that the areas of the plot for the two parts of a dichotomy may be used as an aggregate measure of their relative dominance. An optimization model is developed to determine a topology (or weighted configuration of the attributes) that maximizes the resolution of this measure wi...

Ridesharing in Muscat: Can it be a Sustainable Solution for the Traffic Congestion?

We deal with developing a Decision Support System (DSS) to promote the ridesharing among both students and staff of a big organization. The DSS includes a set of functions that allow the management of the riders’ requests and drivers’ availability and embeds a novel two-phase optimization approach that helps in defining the optimal riders-drivers matching. The first phase consists o...

Optimization of an ultra-high-resolution rectangular pixelated parallel-hole collimator with a CZT pixelated semiconductor detector for HiRe-SPECT system

Introduction: In nuclear medicine, the use of a pixelated semiconductor detector such as CZT is an of growing interest for introducing new devices. Especially, the spatial resolution can be improved by using a pixelated parallel-hole collimator with equal holes and pixel sizes based on the pixelated detector. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of pixelated and ...

Global Diffusion of the Internet VIII: Maximum Resolution Dichotomy for Global Diffusion of the Internet

The Global Diffusion of the Internet (GDI) framework was used to study the progress in the adoption of the Internet in close to 30 countries since 1997. A new methodology in data mining is presented to extend the use of Kiviat diagrams to visualize the framework cast in a supplydemand dichotomy. A maximum resolution topology is derived as an additional tool for exploratory data analysis of such...
