VirtuaForest: A Tool for Simple and Versatile Tree Data Visualization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hiram College conducts long-term vegetation monitoring to investigate changes in the structure and composition of the forests at the College's J.H. Barrow Field Station. This effort includes sampling tree dimensions data in fifty by twenty meter plots, with the goal of developing vertical and horizontal profiles of the forest structure. These structure data are traditionally depicted for visualization by hand-drawing a representation of the trees in each plot. This process is tedious and timeconsuming. This paper describes a Java3D application that allows users to input such tree data and have the program quickly and accurately create visualizations from multiple perspectives.

Employing a hydrophobic-bentonite as a highly efficient and versatile catalyst for a green one-pot and rapid synthesis of 4H-benzo-[b]-pyran derivatives
A hydrophobic-bentonite catalyst (cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide-bentonite) has been used as a very mild, neutral, eco-friendly, reusable, non-toxic, low-cost and easily available catalyst. It was prepared by replacing the exchangeable Na+ cations of a homoionic Na–bentonite with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTMAB) cations. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, BET and SEM. The...

Data mining is intended to extract hidden useful knowledge from large datasets in a given application. This usefulness relates to the user goal, in other words only the user can determine whether the resulting knowledge answers his goal. Therefore, data mining tool should be highly interactive and participatory. This paper presents an interactive decision tree algorithm using visualization meth...

متن کاملThe EDM Vis Tool
We introduce EDM Vis, an information visualization software tool for exploring, navigating and understanding student data logs. EDM Vis loads student logs, entire classes, hundreds of students, at a time, and displays the student behavior of those students as they solved problems using a software tutor. The visualization uses a tree structure to provide an overview of class performance, and int...
متن کاملA SOM Based Cluster Visualization and Its Application for False Coloring
The self-organizing map (SOM) is widely used as a data visualization method in various engineering applications. It performs a non-linear mapping from a high-dimensional data space to a lower dimensional visualization space. In this paper, a simple method for visualizing the cluster structure of SOM model vectors is presented. The method may be used to produce tree-like visualizations, but the ...
