• Abstract: Widely used pipelines for the analysis of high-dimensional data utilize two-dimensional visualizations. These are created, e.g., via t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE). When it comes to large data sets, applying these visualization techniques creates suboptimal embeddings, as the hyperparameters are not suitable for large data. Cranking up these parameters usually does not work as the computations become too expensive for practical workflows. In this paper, we argue that a sampling-based embedding approach can circumvent these problems. We show that hyperparameters must be chosen carefully, depending on the sampling rate and the intended final embedding. Further, we show how this approach speeds up the computation and increases the quality of the embeddings.

• Hyperparameter Selection for Subsampling Bootstraps [0.0]
  A subsampling method like BLB serves as a powerful tool for assessing the quality of estimators for massive data. The performance of the subsampling methods are highly influenced by the selection of tuning parameters. We develop a hyperparameter selection methodology, which can be used to select tuning parameters for subsampling methods. Both simulation studies and real data analysis demonstrate the superior advantage of our method.

• Optimizing Vessel Trajectory Compression [71.42030830910227]
  In previous work we introduced a trajectory detection module that can provide summarized representations of vessel trajectories by consuming AIS positional messages online. This methodology can provide reliable trajectory synopses with little deviations from the original course by discarding at least 70% of the raw data as redundant. However, such trajectory compression is very sensitive to parametrization. We take into account the type of each vessel in order to provide a suitable configuration that can yield improved trajectory synopses.
