Change Analysis Across Version Histories of Systems Models
… easier to develop standard tools for automated analysis and overall management of a system process; thereby, saving cost and minimizing errors. Like all systems artifacts, models are subject to continuous change and the execution of changes may significantly affect model maintenance. Existing …

DENSITY BASED FRAMEWORKS FOR SPATIO-TEMPORAL CHANGE ANALYSIS
Analyzing change in spatial data is important for many different domains such as biology, ecology, meteorology, medicine, transportation, and forestry. On the other hand, density functions have served as a valuable tool in data mining. However, the development of spatiotemporal data mining …

Affective Images of Climate Change: Analysis and Database Development
<p>Although climate change has become an increasingly popular topic in both research and the public-eye, there is little standardization of the images used to represent it. The differences in expert and non-expert climate imagery is also problematic. This study aims to resolve both of these issues: …

Drainage Timescale Estimates and Storage Change Analysis on A Basin Scale
… can be estimated empirically from recession flow analysis as well as from hydraulic theory. Applicability of is critical in groundwater hydrology, such as, estimation to groundwater storage change. The groundwater storage change estimation allows to assess risks for potential flood and droughts …

A Cost Per Behavior Change Analysis for Physical Therapy-Behavior Modification Projects
… following intervention. Costs for achieving this change in performance were presented in five separate categories. The first was the number of hours of treatment necessary to produce the behavior change multiplied by the hourly wage of the CDW who conducted the treatment, the second was the cost …

"How Do We Make that Change?" Analysis of Transformative Dialogue in a Community Initiative
… the significance of civic engagement for social change, and documented its decline in recent years. Despite this, review of literature addressing transformative learning and civic engagement point to the absence of detailed accountings of how communities are transformed through their interactions …

Satpura: A Novel Framework for Density Estimation, Hotspot Discovery, Change Analysis, and Change-based Alerts
… are increasingly available. Spatio-temporal data analysis has applications in many fields, including criminology, epidemiology, and traffic analysis. The main focus of this research is to develop a generic analysis framework called Satpura, which provides density estimation, hotspot discovery, and …

Land Cover Change Analysis of the Mississippi Gulf Coast from 1975 to 2005 using Landsat MSS and TM Imagery
The population, employment and housing units along the Gulf Coast of Mississippi have been increasing since the 1970s through the 2000s. In this study, an overall increasing trend in land cover was found in developed land area near interstates and highways along all three coastal counties. A strong …

Dynamics of Individual Attitude Change During Discussion ((Markov)
… groups do not address how individuals' attitudes change during discussion. Tests of the order, stationarity and homogeneity assumptions of Markov models precisely described changes in polling and stimulated recall measures of attitudes during discussion, in groups interacting with or without a …

The Mexican Water Forest: benefits of using remote sensing techniques to assess changes in land use and land cover
… fragmentation and deforestation have resulted in changes in the land use and land cover (LULC) in the Mexican Water Forest. Due to the important ecosystem services, and the natural resources this forest provides, in Mexico, it has become increasingly necessary to use new technologies and tools to …
