Geovicla: Automated Classification of Interactive Web-Based Geovisualizations

Authors: Phil Hüffer, Auriol Degbelo, and Benjamin Risse

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 346, 13th International Conference on Geographic Information Science (GIScience 2025)

Abstract
The exponential growth of interactive geovisualizations on the Web has underscored the need for automated techniques to enhance their findability. In this paper, we present the Geovicla dataset (2.5K instances), constructed through the harvesting and manual labelling of webpages from a broad range of domains. The webpages are categorized into three groups: "interactive visualisation", "interactive geovisualisation" and "`no interactive visualisation". Using this dataset, we compared three approaches for interactive (geo)visualization classification: (i) a heuristic-based approach (i.e. using manually derived rules), (ii) a feature-engineering approach (i.e. hand-crafted feature vectors combined with machine learning classifiers) and (iii) an embedding-based approach (i.e. automatically generated large language model (LLM) embeddings with machine learning classifiers). The results indicate that LLM embeddings, when used in conjunction with a multilayer perceptron, form a promising combination, achieving up to 74% accuracy for multiclass classification and 75% for binary classification. The dataset and the insights gained from our empirical comparison offer valuable resources for GIScience researchers aiming to enhance the discoverability of interactive geovisualizations.

Enumeration of Minimal Hitting Sets Parameterized by Treewidth

Authors: Batya Kenig and Dan Shlomo Mizrahi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 328, 28th International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT 2025)

Abstract
Enumerating the minimal hitting sets of a hypergraph is a problem which arises in many data management applications that include constraint mining, discovering unique column combinations, and enumerating database repairs. Previously, Eiter et al. [Thomas Eiter et al., 2003] showed that the minimal hitting sets of an n-vertex hypergraph, with treewidth w, can be enumerated with delay O^*(n^w) (ignoring polynomial factors), with space requirements that scale with the output size. We improve this to fixed-parameter-linear delay, following an FPT preprocessing phase. The memory consumption of our algorithm is exponential with respect to the treewidth of the hypergraph.

Qualitative Abstraction and Inherent Uncertainty in Scene Recognition

Authors: Carsten Elfers, Otthein Herzog, Andrea Miene, and Thomas Wagner

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8091, Logic and Probability for Scene Interpretation (2008)

Abstract
The interpretation of scenes, e.g., in videos, is demanding at all levels. At the image processing level it is necessary to apply an "intelligent" segmentation and to determine the objects of interest. For the higher symbolic levels it is a challenging task to perform the transition between quantitative and qualitative data and to determine the relations between objects. Here we assume that the position of objects ("agents") in images and videos will already be determined as a minimal requirement for the further analysis. The interpretation of complex and dynamic scenes with embedded intentional agents is one of the most challenging tasks in current AI and imposes highly heterogeneous requirements. A key problem is the efficient and robust representation of uncertainty. We propose that uncertainty should be distinguished with respect to two different epistemological sources: (1) noisy sensor information and (2) ignorance. In this presentation we propose possible solutions to this class of problems. The use and evaluation of sensory information in the field of robotics shows impressive results especially in the fields of localization (e.g. MCL) and map building (e.g. SLAM) but also imposes serious problems on the successive higher levels of processing due to the probabilistic nature. In this presentation we propose that the use of (a) qualitative abstraction (classic approach) from quantitative to (at least partial) qualitative representations and (b) coherence-based perception validation based on Dempster-Shafer (DST) can help to reduce the problem significantly. The second important probability problem class that will be addressed is ignorance. In our presentation we will focus on reducing missing information by inference. We contrast/compare our experiences in an important field of scene interpretation namely plan and intention recognition. The first approach is based on a logical abductive approach and the second approach in contrast uses a probabilistic approach (Relational Hidden Markov Model (RHMM)).
