Interdisciplinary research in computer science requires the development of computational techniques for practical application in different domains. This usually requires careful integration of different areas of technical expertise. This dissertation presents image and time series analysis algorithms, with practical interdisciplinary applications…

The purpose of this study is selecting type of university that can create its competitive advantages in a changing world. The study analyzes 25 related experiential professors. The VIKOR-based methodology is used to tackle the ranking of four types of universities. The study found that the rank of the university types is: Research-Intensive,…

Points of view analysis, as a way to deal with individual differences in multidimensional scaling, was largely supplanted by the weighted Euclidean model. It is argued that the approach deserves new attention, especially as a technique to analyze group differences. A streamlined and integrated process is proposed. (SLD)

Reported are the results of a study designed to investigate and compare four cluster analytic procedures as potential methods for the analysis of educational data. A secondary objective was to determine whether or not there was some underlying multidimensional structure to a set of mathematics achievement data. The four clustering procedures (Ball…
