Non-Metric Multi-Dimensional Scaling for Distance-Based Privacy-Preserving Data Mining
… data mining. We propose the use of non-metric multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) as a suitable technique to perturb data that are intended for distance-based data mining. The basic premise of this approach is to transform the original data into a lower dimensional space and generate new data that …

Ultrawideband IEEE802.15.4a Cognitive Localization Methods for the 5G Environment
… the cluster cooperation method achieves multi-user access rate of over 485% above cellular network standards. Also proposed is the ULOSTECH D2D-propagation-based combined localization and communication scheme (UD-CLOCS) for ultra-dense networks. This utilizes cooperative D2D data hoping …

The behavioral space of zebrafish locomotion and its neural network analog
… of fish, we construct a “behavioral space” using multi-dimensional scaling (MDS). This method turns each cycle of a trajectory into a single point in behavioral space, and clusters points based on behavioral similarity. Clustering analysis reveals three known behavioral patterns—scoots, turns, …

Statistical Modeling for High-dimensional Compositional data with Applications to the Human Microbiome
… data. In particular, we focus on the high-dimensional and over-dispersed setting, where the dimensionality of compositions is greater than the sample size and the dispersion parameter is moderate or large. In this dissertation, we consider a general problem of testing for the compositional …

A study of facility management knowledge classification for the effective stewardship of existing buildings
… Two presented the findings of Phase One in a Multi Dimensional Scaling (MDS) survey instrument to Facility Management experts for dissimilarity assessments. The results from the 56 completed surveys were embedded within MDS software to present spatial knowledge proximity cluster analysis. The …

Automatic Detection of Brain Functional Disorder Using Imaging Data
… the global structure of the networks, we use the Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) technique to project all the subjects from an unknown network-space to a low dimensional space based on their inter-network distance measures. For the purpose of computing distance between two networks, we represent …
