The document width.pdf contains some result diagrams for
experiments in which it was tried to find the analysis window width
to be used with CoCoNAD automatically from
the given data set. The ideas underlying the approach are described
in the paper
[Picado-Muiño
and Borgelt 2015].
The archives width.{zip,tar.gz} contain scripts and other
source files, with which the experiments were conducted and the document
with the result diagrams was created.
Note that the scripts etc. were developed on/for a GNU/Linux
system (Ubuntu 14.04 or later) and thus are directly executable on such
a system or a similar one (that is, some other GNU/Linux distribution).
Although at least most of the Python scripts should also be working
on a Windows system (with the possible exception of the parallelization
scripts), most of the other scripts (like the run script,
which is the main control script, and the makefile, which
controls generating the diagrams from the result data) may need
porting to batch files or something similar.
On a GNU/Linux system, the following software needs to be installed to run the experiments:
cocoexp
package will also work without this extension module, namely by
falling back on a pure Python replacement, which, however, is
slower by a factor of about 40 or more),pdflatex program,mptopdf command,bash,
awk, tar etc.) and are easy to install
otherwise.On such a system the experiments can be run by simply calling
the main script run (in the directory width) on the
command line, which does everything. The execution of the experiments
exploits 4-fold parallelization, thus making full use of the quadcore
processors basically all modern computers are equipped with.
The progress of the experiments can be followed on the command line,
to which regular progress messages are written. Once all experiments
are completed (which should take less than an hour on a modern computer
system), the result diagrams are created and compiled into the final
documents, which are also directly available above.
