DS6 ProgressAstroGrid Edinburgh
● Basics● Visualisation tool interoperability● Data mining
http://wiki.eurovotech.org/twiki/bin/view/VOTech/DS6Progress03
Basics● Recruit Data miner/developer
DONE - Lorenzo Rimoldini to start as Astronomer/Data miner October (not VOTech)
DONE - Brian Walshe to start as Data miner/developer October
Viz Tool Interop - Plastic● VisIVO - Marco and Bjorn to visit IfA
VisIVO now sends and receives Plastic messages. ● Astroneural - Antonino to visit in IfA July
Didn't happen ● Others - GAIA, Mirage...want critical mass of
plasticized tools Good progress....
Edinburgh – Quick Plastic Demo● Workbench/Plastic – enabled web pages● Message “actions” - small mod to spec.
(proposed)● Prototypes!● http://eurovotech.org/wfau/tupperware/ShowApplet.html
Tool Interop - AR/CEA● Weka does MySpace access and Cone Search
through the Workbench/AstroRuntime● Weka algorithms through CEA (prototypes)● Running FLY on Edinburgh HPC through CEA● Launching FLY from VisIVO through WB.● Deployed AnomalyDetector through CEA (see
demo)
Scalable Data Mining● Run KDE estimation code using VOTech broker
Not done Meeting with Bob Nichol arranged for November Handover of VOTechBroker code by Garry
underway DS3 to take over maintenance of VOTechBroker?? DS6 to be an early adopter
Scalable Data Mining● Investigate scalability of Weka (MSc project)
DONE. Dissertation submitted. ● Look into offering kd-trees as a datacenter
service/API Under way – New hires Anomaly Detector now deployed (demo) http://wiki.eurovotech.org/twiki/bin/view/VOTech/
AnomalyDetection
Hackathon
● Offers Help with plasticization Calling WB from javascript/html
● Requests STILTS help Re Anomaly Detection Applet Jar shrinking Plastic spec refinement and IVOA note Questions on SIAP
