Pattern Identification and Industry -Specialist Auditors
… are able to interpret and fill in partial cue patterns, whereas mismatched specialists do not recognize the implications of even full patterns. Matched specialists respond to a partial cue pattern that potentially indicates misstatement by developing better mental models about the seeded …

APIC: A method for automated pattern identification and classification
Machine Learning (ML) is a transformative technology at the forefront of many modern research endeavours. The technology is generating a tremendous amount of attention from researchers and practitioners, providing new approaches to solving complex classification and regression tasks. While concepts …

Weibull mixture model for grouped data and pattern identification in spatial and spatial-temporal data.
… and apply statistical tools for characterizing patterns that exist in different types of data. In the first project, we propose the Weibull mixture model to fit the distribution of grain size in continental sediments in geological studies. We use an EM algorithm to fit the model and a bootstrap …

Design of interactive maps for ocean dynamics data
… over depicted data, allowing easier study and pattern identification on multiple scales. Integrating static and geospatial data in dynamic visualization creates a heightened viewpoint for analysis, enhances ocean monitoring and prediction, and contributes to building scientific knowledge. This …

Image Classification using Gabor Filters and Machine Learning
… Drawing from recent work on human iris pattern identification, we propose a classification methodology based on Gabor feature space representation of aerial imagery, where the two object classes may be well separated. We evaluate two different distance metrics to discern class separation …

Specification theory, patterns, and models in information systems domains: an exploratory investigation
… IS projects suggest dimly perceived structural patterns in specifications that are unaccounted for in research and practice. This investigation utilizes a theory building with case studies methodology to elucidate some of these patterns. As prerequisites to pattern identification, this …

Technology Integration in Georgia Public Elementary Schools
… Interview data were analyzed inductively through pattern identification and coding. Three themes emerged from analysis of the principals' interviews: obtaining hardware, software, and training; communicating expectations for technology use; and, defining what was considered effective use of …

FingerEye: An Electrotactile-mechanism Enabled Adaptive Sensory-substitution Aid for the Blind and Visually Impaired
… an algorithm generating and controlling pattern stimulation; an improved Optical Character Recognition (OCR) algorithm for extracting the text; an amplitude modulation technique to control the voltage delivered to the skin; and the Kalman filter to predict and guide the fingertip over the …

Data-centric methods for optimization and pattern discovery in networked systems
… in this thesis is centered on identifying design patterns in architecture graph representations of operational systems. Design patterns have been well documented and researched in software systems as a valuable design tool since the nineties. However, their usage has not been significantly …

A controlled trial of Chinese herbal medicine for premenstrual syndrome
… of the symptoms of this disorder by applying Pattern Identification to diagnose the signs and symptoms of individual patients and to design individualised treatments which seek to address the entire pattern/s of disharmony. It follows that PMS, which has many symptoms and an idiosyncratic …

Grassroots Talent Development at La Maestra: Understanding the Perceptions of Leaders and Staff
… (MAs).</p> <p>This qualitative study utilized pattern identification to better understand perspectives of both La Maestra leadership and talented employees. Findings revealed commonalities of mindsets amongst almost all talented employees. Such similarities include the mission alignment, shared …

The relationship of tempo, pattern length, and grade level on the recognition of rhythm patterns
… study was to investigate the effects of tempo, pattern length, and grade level on student ability to recognize rhythm patterns. It was intended that the study would also determine if age and experience are factors which affect rhythm recognition and memory. A 48 item Rhythm Pattern …

Development of First-Year Engineering Teams' Mathematical Models through Linked Modeling and Simulation Projects
… system through mathematics, quantification, and pattern identification. Simulations enable users to interact with models through manipulation of input variables and visualization of model outputs. Although modeling skills are fundamental, they are rarely explicitly taught in engineering. …

Pseudoproxy modelling to explore ecosystem dynamics and assess uncertainties in palaeoecology
… in terms of false positive and false negative pattern identification (e.g. of regime shifts or indicators of resilience). Virtual assessments of how uncertainty in palaeoecological data affect statistical analyses are few and do not adequately represent the underlying ecological dynamics or the …

Plant Species and Functional Diversity along Altitudinal Gradients, Southwest Ethiopian Highlands
… of ecologists and biogeographers. Altitudinal patterns of richness gradients are one of such striking patterns in the landscape. Despite its historical and ecological importance as a heuristic natural experimental site for development of ecological theories, the emergent patterns and mechanisms …

Digital anthropology and educational eGames: learning through behavioural patterns in digital, game-based contexts
… provision. A key part of this analysis is the identification of behavioural, anthropological patterns, so that users can be clustered based on their actions, and the steps taken in the system (e.g. social network, online community, or virtual campus). In doing so, we can analyse large data sets …
