OVERALL TASK - 8

Create Visual for ETAS and Alarm Data in Report

• Understand the parameters of the model
• What are our axes
• PDF versus CDF
• Create graph output for the coordinate data we receive from the analyzers - output the two graphs on the same coordinate plane
• Create a residual plot to compare the two models
• Is there a correlation between the two models? Is the residual plot white noise?
• How do we determine the fit between the lines in the plot?

  S.M.A.R.T. Goals

Specific

• Create graph outputs for ETAS and Alarm Data based on the data provided by the analyzers
• Overlay two graphs on the same coordinate plane and compare
• Create a residual plot to compare the two models & determine if it is white noise
• Look for a correlation b/w the two models

Measurable

• (note all of this should be available after receiving the relevant data from analyzers)
• The data for each model will be measurable by its parameters and axes
• The fitness of the lines should be measurable (should come up with a way)
• If any, the correlation between the 2 models should be measurable

Attainable

• Contact analyzer groups to attain the data for visualization
• Our output is not attainable yet.

Relevant

• We thought it is a relevant idea to reach out for Brad Luen by identifying his current contact information and ask about - MDA model; -> We found that one of the vertical groups has already done so and supposedly got a reply back, which we should inquire them for.
• Will reach out for other visualizers to get a better picture of visualization of this project as a whole

Time bound

• By Sunday 10PM: post rough draft for SMART goals
• By Monday 11:59PM: post SMART goals; have an understanding of how our group fits into the big picture; get into contact with the other groups
• Most of our timeline is dependent on the timelines of the other groups (such as the analyzers)

  ROADBLOCKS

• Difficulty in communicating with others
  • To solve this, we tried contacting other groups using Github, Facebook, and office hours
  • Our presenter met up with other presenters, and through this we were able to understand what the other groups are doing
  • Visualizers created a Facebook group and tried to reorganize ourselves, following the analyzers' examples on Github
• Late group organization
  • Because of this, we met up with each other twice, and kept in frequent contact via Facebook, Github, and phone apps
  • Created a common Github issue tracker to organize our SMART goals (This one!)

Hey Aaron @aculich - This is a very rough draft of what our group has so far. Could you take a look at our SMART goals and see if you could make some suggestions? Or let us know if we are on the right track?

Also, we have scheduled OH with you Monday 6-8pm, so we will be talking more in depth on this tomorrow. Thanks for your time!
