In the past it was difficult to do more than list some general principles. Interactive graphics are ideal for exploratory data analysis, when they are intuitive, flexible and fast. The basic interactive requirements for a plot are outlined followed by discussion of specific additions for individual plots. The ideas are illustrated using many examples. 10:50 - 12:00 Moon Yul Huh (Sungkyunkwan University, Korea) "Overview of data visualization" 13:30 - 14:40 Junji Nakano (ISM, Japan) "Parallel computing in Statistics: Review" Parallel architectures Methods of parallel programming Fork, Thread PVM, MPI OpenMP, HPF Statistical examples 14:50 - 16:00 Antony Unwin "Variations on Mosaic plots" Classical mosaic plots are quite effective for multivariate categorical data, but there are several alternative forms which make them even more powerful, including same binsize plots, fluctuation diagrams and doubledecker plots. More research is needed on which plot is best when and this topic will be explored using a number of applications. 16:10 - 17:20 Ikunori Kobayashi (Tokushima Bunri University, Japan) "Data mining functions in Jasp" Weka: Free data mining software in Java Using Weka functions from Jasp 18:00 - Workshop party 14 (Fri) November, 2003 ----------------------------------- 9:30 - 10:40 Moon Yul Huh "Data reduction for data visualization" 10:50 - 12:00 Antony Unwin "Parallel coordinates and interactivity" Multivariate data can be displayed in parallel coordinate plots, but interactivity is needed to get the most information from the data. Two data sets will be analysed, the results of the Decathlon competition in the Sydney Olympic Games and a comparative wine tasting. 13:30 - 14:40 Kenji Satou (JAIST, Japan) "Grid computing in bioinformatics" Open Bioinformatics Grid (OBIGrid) is an infrastructure for accelerating bioinformatics researches which require massive computing power scattered over the internet. In this talk, our efforts to facilitate embarrassingly parallel computing on distributed and heterogeneous machines are presented. 14:50 - 16:00 Antony Unwin "Specialist visualisation software" Time series data and spatial data both require displays which reflect their particular structures. So do market share and index data. Illustrations using a variety of applications will show the advantages of specialist treatment for these kinds of data set. 16:10 - 17:20 Yuichi Mori (Okayama University of Science, Japan) Yoshiro Yamamoto (Tama University, Japan) and Hiroshi Yadohisa (Kagoshima University, Japan) "Data-oriented Statistical System (DoSS@d)" DoSS@d (Data oriented Statistical System) is a statistical system based on real data sets and their analyses processes (analysis stories). This system is constructed mainly to be used for educational purpose, and it provides not only ordinary database search system but also online analysis system based on the attribute and analysis story of each data set. That is, this project is to cleate a web-base system which provides a large scale database of contents (related to statistical education) so that users can utilize it globally and interactively. ********************************************************************* Workshop on "Modern Statistical Visualization and related topics" (2) at ISM on 11-12, December 2003 ********************************************************************* 11 (Thu) December, 2003 ----------------------------------- 9:20 - 9:30 Genshiro Kitagawa (Director-General of ISM) Opening address 9:30 - 10:40 Ross Ihaka (Auckland University, New Zealand) "An introduction to the R project" Why R exists Origins of the code, New Ideas Developement of R core Organisation and lack thereof The Wider R Community The R Foundation Issues: Licensing / Support 10:50 - 12:00 Shigeru Mase (Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan) "A personal report on the present status of R systems in Japan" R and Japanese users R related activities in Japan (Rjp and RjpWiki) Translations of documents of R Japanese books on R 13:30 -14:40 Ross Ihaka "Scoping in R" Scoping.
