Data set

Summary

A data set (or dataset) is a collection of data. In the case of tabular data, a data set corresponds to one or more database tables, where every column of a table represents a particular variable, and each row corresponds to a given record of the data set in question. The data set lists values for each of the variables, such as for example height and weight of an object, for each member of the data set. Data sets can also consist of a collection of documents or files. In the open data discipline, data set is the unit to measure the information released in a public open data repository. The European data.europa.eu portal aggregates more than a million data sets. Properties Several characteristics define a data set's structure and properties. These include the number and types of the attributes or variables, and various statistical measures applicable to them, such as standard deviation and kurtosis. The values may be numbers, such as real numbers or integers, for example

The task of the master project is to analyse a data set with information of several hundred companies from Switzerland. The goal is to find in the Swiss industry sector a classification/typology for the nature of resource efficiency of innovating companies and comparing their impacts in Switzerland and abroad.

A multi-class framework for a pedestrian cell transmission model accounting for population heterogeneity

Guy Alexander Cooper

This work is an extension of PedCTM, an aggregate and transient cell transmission model for multidirectional pedestrian flows in which pedestrian characteristics are assumed to be homogeneous across the population considered. Critically, one fundamental diagram relating pedestrian speed and flow to local pedestrian density is employed across the entire population. This work extends the model to population heterogeneity with a multi-class approach wherein each sub-population is assigned its own characteristic fundamental diagram. The model presented requires the implementation of an update cycle to minimize numerical dis- persion of pedestrians across all classes. In addition, multi-class dynamics introduces an element of competition in determining the flow constraints of the various classes. A priority scheme is implemented that allows for static, dynamic and stochastic determination of flow priorities throughout the network over the course of simulation. An attempt was made to base the class-specific fundamental diagrams off of inference from a dataset related to the PedFlux collaboration. Ultimately, however, the implementation made use of the Kladek formula for the speed-density relation. Preliminary simulations and results are presented to serve as a proof of concept.

A Graph Signal Processing Framework for the Classification of Temporal Brain Data

Sarah Itani

Graph Signal Processing (GSP) addresses the analysis of data living on an irregular domain which can be modeled with a graph. This capability is of great interest for the study of brain connectomes. In this case, data lying on the nodes of the graph are considered as signals (e.g., fMRI time-series) that have a strong dependency on the graph topology (e.g., brain structural connectivity). In this paper, we adopt GSP tools to build features related to the frequency content of the signals. To make these features highly discriminative, we apply an extension of the Fukunaga-Koontz transform. We then use these new features to train a decision tree for the prediction of autism spectrum disorder. Interestingly, our framework outperforms state-of-the-art methods on the publicly available ABIDE dataset.
