Polar Classification of Nominal Data
2013
Many modern systems record various types of parameter values. Numerical values are relatively convenient for data analysis tools because there are many methods to measure distances and similarities between them. The application of dimensionality reduction techniques for data sets with such values is also a well known practice. Nominal (i.e., categorical) values, on the other hand, encompass some problems for current methods. Most of all, there is no meaningful distance between possible nominal values, which are either equal or unequal to each other. Since many dimensionality reduction methods rely on preserving some form of similarity or distance measure, their application to such data sets…
An open-source computational and data resource to analyze digital maps of immunopeptidomes
2015
We present a novel mass spectrometry-based high-throughput workflow and an open-source computational and data resource to reproducibly identify and quantify HLA-associated peptides. Collectively, the resources support the generation of HLA allele-specific peptide assay libraries consisting of consensus fragment ion spectra, and the analysis of quantitative digital maps of HLA peptidomes generated from a range of biological sources by SWATH mass spectrometry (MS). This study represents the first community-based effort to develop a robust platform for the reproducible and quantitative measurement of the entire repertoire of peptides presented by HLA molecules, an essential step towards the de…
Rīgas pilsētas dzīvojamības novērtēšana, izmantojot atvērtus datu avotus
2016
Darba mērķis ir izpētīt atvērto datu iegūšanas, apkopošanas un analīzes iespējas lielu pilsētu dzīvojamības novērtēšanai, par piemēru ņemot Rīgas pilsētu. Darba rezultātā tiks izveidots interaktīvs rīks, kas ļautu katram interesentam norādīt tieši sev svarīgākos dzīvesvietas izvēles kritērijus, un atrast piemērotāko vietu, kas tiem atbilst. Darba rezultātā tika izveidots minētais rīks, kā arī izveidota heterogēna datu ievākšanas un apstrādes platforma no tādiem datu avotiem kā OpenStreetMap, ss.lv u.c. Tika izveidots algoritms šo datu ātrai apvienošanai, kā arī interaktīva karte šo datu attēlošanai.
Software Modernization and Replacement Decision Making in Industry: A Qualitative Study
2006
Software modernization and replacement decisions are crucial to many organizations. They affect greatly to the success and well being of the organizations and their people. The decisions like that are usually presumed to be rational and based on facts. These decisions and how they are made tell much about the decision makers and the decision making tools available to them. Interviews of 29 software modernization decision makers or senior experts were analyzed in order to find out how the decisions were made and what models and tools were used. It turned out that decisions are not as rational as supposed. Intuition is the dominant factor in decision making. Formal software engineering orient…
Determining the implementation order of a general plan by using a multicriteria method
1998
We describe a real-life application of a new multicriteria method in the context of assisting the decision-making for a general plan in the municipality of Kirkkonummi in Uusimaa, Finland. At the time our group started working on the problem, a proposal for an overall plan had already been completed, but the order in which different regional parts of the plan should be implemented needed to be considered based on the environmental impact assessment (EIA) procedure. The EIA procedure generated a large amount of data about the different impacts of the alternatives. For this group decision making problem we developed the SMAA-3 decision support method which does not require any explicit prefer…
A knowledge-based decision support system in bioinformatics: An application to protein complex extraction
2013
Abstract Background We introduce a Knowledge-based Decision Support System (KDSS) in order to face the Protein Complex Extraction issue. Using a Knowledge Base (KB) coding the expertise about the proposed scenario, our KDSS is able to suggest both strategies and tools, according to the features of input dataset. Our system provides a navigable workflow for the current experiment and furthermore it offers support in the configuration and running of every processing component of that workflow. This last feature makes our system a crossover between classical DSS and Workflow Management Systems. Results We briefly present the KDSS' architecture and basic concepts used in the design of the knowl…
Towards the development of a Decision Support System (DSS) for building renovation: Domain Mapping Matrix (DMM) for sustainability renovation criteri…
2018
Future building renovation concerns more holistic perspectives related to the sustainability seen in a wider range of objectives/criteria facilitated by the renovation scenarios. In this regard, based on the studies upon existing sustainability evaluation and assessment tools carried out in previous research works, a characteristic diagram including a value map for evaluating a holistic sustainable retrofitting was developed. Further, in present paper, by reviewing the relevant literature, looking into recent European renovation research projects, the Danish SIGMA database, and investigation of a real case, a comprehensive list of renovation approaches (i.e. insulation technologies, windows…

Boundary behavior of quasi-regular maps and the isodiametric profile
2001
We study obstructions for a quasi-regular mapping f : M → N f:M\rightarrow N of finite degree between Riemannian manifolds to blow up on or collapse on a non-trivial part of the boundary of M M .
Determining the Set of Concept Map Based Tasks for Computerized Knowledge Self-Assessment
2012
Demands for educated labor force with well-integrated cognitive structures call for necessity to use in educational institutions appropriate teaching and knowledge assessment methods directed towards fine development and assessment of students’ conceptual understanding. Concept maps as a kind of mental models have great potential in knowledge assessment due to several significant advantages. However, a taxonomy of possible concept mapping tasks has not been developed yet. The paper considers the problem of extending a set of concept mapping tasks in the already developed concept map based knowledge assessment system. The possible types of tasks are investigated from the point of view of the…
