A systems biology approach for the identification of perturbed molecular functions is required to understand the complex progressive disease such as breast cancer. In this study, we analyze the microarray data with Gene Ontology terms of molecular functions to select perturbed molecular functional modules in breast cancer tissues based on the definition of Gene ontology Functional Code. The Gene Ontology is three structured vocabularies describing genes and its products in terms of their associated biological processes, cellular components and molecular functions. The Gene Ontology is hierarchically classified as a directed acyclic graph. However, it is difficult to visualize Gene Ontology as a directed tree since a Gene Ontology term may have more than one parent by providing multiple paths from the root. Therefore, we applied the definition of Gene Ontology codes by defining one or more GO code(s) to each GO term to visualize the hierarchical classification of GO terms as a network. The selected molecular functions could be considered as perturbed molecular functional modules that putatively contributes to the progression of disease. We evaluated the method by analyzing microarray dataset of breast cancer tissues; i.e., normal and invasive breast cancer tissues. Based on the integration approach, we selected several interesting perturbed molecular functions that are implicated in the progression of breast cancers. Moreover, these selected molecular functions include several known breast cancer-related genes. It is concluded from this study that the present strategy is capable of selecting perturbed molecular functions that putatively play roles in the progression of diseases and provides an improved interpretability of GO terms based on the definition of Gene Ontology codes.

This study examines the social network of scholars in the field of communication by using author cocitation data. A matrix containing the number of cocited documents between pairs of authors is created for social network analysis of scholars who are on the editorial board of Journal of Communication, and the networked map of the scholars is used to visualize the knowledge structure of the field by identifying groups of authors who are more central than others. In addition, the study compares the previous analysis performed in 2008 and the current analysis on the editorial board of the journal, which increased from 146 to 254 scholars in numbers. Author cocitation data was collected using Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) through the Web of Science database, and UCInet was used to create and visualize the author cocitation network and to analyze the correlation between the cocitation network and the factors that may have affected the structure of the cocitation network.

In this paper, we design and implement a service system for mobile devices to utilize the integrated underground geospatial information map in underground exploration fields. The field utilization service system for mobile devices is designed to visualize tiled maps, 3D terrain information, underground structures, underground facilities, and ground information provided by the Integrated Underground Geospatial Information Map Management System according to current position. And It is designed to reflect the results obtained from field exploration in real time. Also, the proposed system is implemented to transfer and visualize the integrated underground geospatial information map in the form of a glTF format due to constraints on wireless networks and device characteristics of mobile devices. Implemented mobile service systems can prevent accidents in underground exploration field from occurring by providing users with accurate and integrated underground geospatial data by visualizing maps and geospatial objects in three dimensions at underground exploration fields. In addition, updated underground geospatial data is transmitted in real time to the Integrated Underground Geospatial Information Map Management Systems, which can maintain up to date and accuracy.

The government has tried to develop a platform for systematically collecting and managing engineering education data for policy proposals. However, there have been few cases of big data analysis platform for policy proposals in engineering education, and it is difficult to determine the major function of the platform, the purpose of using big data, and the method of data collection. This study aims to collect the cases of big data analysis systems for the development of a big data system for educational policy proposals, and to conduct a study to analyze cases using the analysis frame of key elements to consider in developing a big data analysis platform. In order to analyze the case of big data system for engineering education policy proposals, 24 systems collecting and managing big data were selected. The analysis framework was developed based on literature reviews and the results of the case analysis were presented. The results of this study are expected to provide from macro-level such as what functions the platform should perform in developing a big data system and how to collect data, what analysis techniques should be adopted, and how to visualize the data analysis results.

In this paper, an adaptive beam tracing method with revised subdivision technique is proposed, in which the beam is generated by a set of three rays. According to reflection and/or refraction of the rays on the buildings and/or ground, additional rays are generated adaptively and the beam is subdivided efficiently and automatically. After generation of the set of beams, we transform the electromagnetic wave propagation data into volume data. Then one can visualize the data of propagation with reflection, refraction and interaction in full three dimensional space at any viewpoint by the so-called ray casting algorithm, which is one of the most useful methods in compute. graphics(CG).

Parallel coordinate plot of Inselberg (1985) is useful for visualizing dozens of variables, but so far the plot's applicability is limited to the variables of numerical type. The aim of this study is to extend the parallel coordinate plot so that it can accommodate both numerical and categorical variables. We combine Hayashi's (1950, 1952) quantification method of categorical variables and Hurley's (2004) endlink algorithm of ordering variables for the parallel coordinate plot. In line with our former study (Kwak and Huh, 2008), we develop Andrews' type modification of conventional straight-lines parallel coordinate plot to visualize the mixed-type data.

Visualization of three dimensional medical images has been studied in many ways. For CT and MRI data, 3D rendering schemes are commercially available and widly used. However visualization of ultrasonic 3D data is not popular yet, even though its potentional in medical diagnosis seems very high. In this paper we try to visualize 3D ultrasonic data. The basic method is adopted from the volume rendering technique. Based on the characteristics of the ultrasonic images, 3D visualization algorithm is developed and applied for the 3D image set of a dog heart.

Octree representation has the advantage of being able to represent complex shapes approximately through the repetition of simple primitive shapes. Due to this reason, octree representation together with VRML(Virtual Reality Modelling Language) is usually used for approximating 3D shapes. Since the data size of octree representation increases rapidly as 3D shape to be represented is more and more complicated, its transmission time also increase. In this paper, provided is the new octree representation and encoding/decoding scheme for real-time transmission through the internet in order to visualize 3D geometric data of large size approximately.

This paper proposed an approach to integrate bridge condition assessment related information with a 3D bridge model to visualize bridge condition assessment information in the 3D bridge model. In this approach, bridge information model plays a centric role in the data access and realizes the integration of bridge initial design and historical bridge maintenance records. Behind the bridge information model is a rational database. After the system requirements for this approach, several IFC data model extensions are suggested.

Persistence homology (a type of methodology in computational algebraic topology) can be used to capture the topological characteristics of functional data. To visualize the characteristics, a persistence diagram is adopted by plotting baseline and the pairs that consist of local minimum and local maximum. We use the bottleneck distance to measure the topological distance between two different functions; in addition, this distance can be applied to multidimensional scaling(MDS) that visualizes the imaginary position based on the distance between functions. In this study, we use handwriting data (which has functional forms) to get persistence diagram and check differences between the observations by using bottleneck distance and the MDS.
