  2. UH-DAIS Research Projects 8/19-8/20 • Spatial and Spatio-temporal Data Analysis Frameworks • St^2—Tools for Spatio-temporal Data Storytelling • Understanding US Emotions in Time and Space • Intelligent Crowdsourcing • Collocation Mining Frameworks • Disaster Informatics • MRI Image Analysis and Medical Informatics (lead by Dr. Tsekos) • Scalable Algorithms for Interestingness Hotspot Discovery • Educational Data Mining (lead by Dr. Rizk) • Using AI for Route Planning • Flood Forecasting and Flood Risk Assessment Comment: Active Projects are in white, yellow and blue. Christoph F. Eick

  3. Intelligent Crowdsourcing Motivation: Crowdsourcing has become quite popular: • Companies use it to create datasets for machine learning and to outsource tasks to the crowd. • OpenStreetMap and Waze are examples of crowdsourcing success stories. Research Goals: • Investigate AI Techniques to Enhance Crowdsourcing • Develop Intelligent Crowdsourcing Apps for Disaster Informatics • Investigate the psychological and social aspects of intelligent crowdsourcing

  5. K2: Happiness and Opinion Mapping (from Tweets & …) Everyday in every way my life gets better & better I wanna scream, I wanna shout as I’m not okay Amazing company values wow! Why do I hate myself so much You make me sick Happy Monday! Good start Another lovely day We lost ourselves ❤️ I hate you Emotion scores I love you Emotion scores

  6. K2 Project Goals • Given a set of tweets (or questionnaires soliciting preferences and opinions) with the location (longitude and latitude), time they were posted and their emotional assessment in [-1,+1] (+1:=very positive emotions, 0:=no or even mix of emotions, -1: very negative emotions) • Research Steps and Goals: • Subdivide the dataset into batches, corresponding to different time intervals • Identify spatial clusters of highly positive emotions (e.g. average emotional assessment >0.4) and regions of highly negative emotions (e.g. average emotion assessment < -0.4) for each batch. • Capture patterns of change and evolution of the regions identified in 2. • Based on a selected story type and user preferences, convert results found in steps 2 and 3 into a narrative and animations that tells the story of spatio-temporal evolution of emotions in an region (e.g. Texas, US,…) over a period of time (e.g. 5 years, 1 year, 1 month), similar to: https://www.ted.com/talks/hans_rosling_asia_s_rise_how_and_when

  7. Disaster Informatics Active and Future Research Themes: • Intelligent Crowdsourcing Approaches for Disaster Help • Using Social Media Data During Disasters: Develop social media analysis tools that can be leveraged through crisis informatics and actionable policy steps nonprofits and government entities can take to integrate them into disaster response and recovery. • Develop Disaster Tweet Summarization and Change Analysis Frameworks

  8. Collocation Mining Frameworks Definition: • Spatial colocation patterns represent subsets of spatial events whose instances are often located in close geographic proximity. For example, car break-ins might often occur in close proximity of shopping malls. Research Themes: • Density-based Collocation Mining Approaches • Spatio-temporal Collocation Mining • Algorithms to Discover Regional Collocation Patterns

  9. Intelligent Data Storytelling Tools Motivation: Communicating the story behind the data is a major challenge in most Data Science projects. Consequently, recently data storytelling has gained a lot of attention in the Commercial Data Science Community. Data storytelling is a structured approach for communicating data insights and combines three key elements: data, visuals, and narrative. Objectives: This research centers on development of automated, intelligent data storytelling tools; in particular, it centers on the design and implementation of a spatio-temporal data storytelling framework called Kilimanjaro. Happiness Mapping is used as a case study in this project to demo the frameworks and tools we develop.

  10. Fast Interestingness Hotspot Discovery • Objective: Find interesting contiguous regions in spatial data sets based on the domain expert’s notion of interestingness which is captured in an interestingness function • Methodology: • Transform Dataset Into Graphs • Identify hotspot seeds • Grow seeds by adding neighboring objects • Remove redundant hotspots using a graph-based approach • Find Scope of hotspots (polygonal boundary detection) • Data sets: Gridded, polygonal, point-based data sets
