Abstract By relating observed and modelled behaviour, conformance checking unleashes the full power of process mining. Techniques from this discipline enable analysis quality a model discovered event data, identification potential deviations, projection real traces onto models. This way, insights gained available data can be transferred to richer conceptual level, amenable for human interpretat...

This milestones report details progress toward 3D target reconstruction through fusion of vision and LIDAR data. The utility of using both vision and LIDAR for on-orbit target reconstruction is first presented. The technical approach, including a new camera-LIDAR Structure from Motion (SfM) framework, is next presented, though this technical framework is provisional at present. Validation metho...

The Milestones Project is a comprehensive attempt to collect, document, illustrate, and interpret the historical developments leading to modern data visualization and visual thinking. This paper provides an overview and brief tour of the milestones content, with a few illustrations of significant contributions to the history of data visualization. This forms one basis for exploring interesting ...

Milestones like the centennial of the Cooperative Extension system are significant in any organization.

Modern option pricing techniques are often considered among the most mathematically complex of all applied areas of financial engineering. In particular these techniques derive their impetus from four milestones of option pricing models: Bachelier model, Samuelson model, Black-Scholes-Merton model and Levy model. In this paper we evaluate all related option pricing models based on these milesto...

Global health electives (GHEs) have become a standard offering in many residency programs. Residency electives should aid residents in achieving outcomes in the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) competency domains. In this paper, the authors review existing literature and provide expert opinion to highlight how global health electives can complement traditional traini...
