Accessible Data Mining for Agent-Based Simulation Models

Agent-based simulation models are rising in popularity recently due to their ability to model real-world problems in a wide range of domains. Inherent to these types of simulations is the fact that an enormous amount of data can be generated, which needs to be analysed in order to make the simulation useful. At the moment, the available tools to...

An Applicability Study of Data Mining to Improve the Secondhand Market Model of the Maritime Business Game

This study aims to improve of secondhand market model used in the Maritime Business Game (MBG) & to judge the relevance of three data mining algorithms. Pruyn developed MBG to simulate the long term consequences of various shipping scenarios. MBG consists of three multilevel models to represent the maritime economy. Starting from the Multi...

Global Migration Dynamics: An Exploratory Study Integrating Multi-Resolution Modeling Techniques with Semiautomatic Data Acquisition

This study approached migration-related problems from a global perspective. The inter- connected nature of migration means that migration problems accumulate and intensify throughout the world. To capture these effects, a data-rich model component was devel- oped for global migration dynamics.<br/>To that extent, this study has developed the...

Predicting motion sickness for crew transfer vessels using modelling and date mining techniques

In recent years, the offshore wind industry has grown significantly. The wind turbines are constructed in wind farms, and are serviced with relatively small crew transfer vessels. These vessels transport repair crews from the mainland to the farms and back within a day. One of the big challenges is that these transits can cause motion sickness....

Spatio-Temporal Data Mining, Visual Analytics for Video Annotation

The explosion of video data in surveillance calls for large amount of annotated datasets that could be used for information retrieval, learning-based network training and algorithms evaluation phase. A number of annotated video<br/>datasets have been shared to public, however, these open annotated datasets lack spatio-temporal information which...

Multimodal Interface for DNA Alignment of Sequences

Major research efforts in Bioinformatics include sequence alignment, gene finding, genome assembly, protein structure alignment, protein structure prediction, prediction of gene expression and protein-protein interactions, and the modeling of evolution. To perform these specific tasks different tools are used. Using these tools separately is a...
