模式就是在空间数据库中发现和挖掘空间对象之间的关联关系.例如,西尼罗河病毒通常发生在蚊子泛滥、饲养家禽的区域;植物学家们发现/半湿润常绿阔叶林0生长的地方80%会有/兰类0植物生长[1].在现实世界中,模糊对象无处不在,比如/漂亮的女人0、/高大的树0等,同时模糊对象在许多应用中也起着十分重要的作用,目前对模糊对象的研究范围十分广泛,但对co-location模式的研究还没有,针对这一情况,本文研究模糊对象上的co-lo catio n 模式挖掘问题.本文第2节为相关工作;第3节是相关定义及性质;第4、5节为算法和实验;第6节为结论.2相关工作空间co-lo catio n模式挖掘问题是空间数据挖掘领域的一个重要研究方向,人们对确定数据上的co-location模式挖掘问题进行了深入的研究,并提出了很多算法,比如join_based算法[2]、partia-l join 算法[3]、join-less算法[4]、CPI-tree算法[5]、order-clique-based算法[6]等.在文献[2]中,给出了co-location模式挖掘相关的一些定义,包括邻近关系、空间co-location模式、行实例、表实例、参与率、参与度以及co-lo catio n规则和条件概率等.近年来,对不确定数据上的co-location模式挖掘的研究也越来越多,文献[7]提出了不确定集上的U Join_based算法.文献[8]研究了从区间数据表示的不确定对象中挖掘co-location模式.虽然目前空间co-location模式挖掘算法很多,但对模糊对象的co-location挖掘算法还未见报道.模糊对象[9]的研究目前主要集中在模糊对象的建模上,比如基本的类型和操作模型等.文献[10-13]在GIS中对模糊对象做了大量的研究.文献[14]研究模糊对象的K NN查找问题,提出了A K NN和R K NN算法.3相关定义及性质本部分首先对模糊对象、模糊概率阈值、空间距离、模糊参与率以及模糊参与度进行定义,其次给出本文定义的模糊参与率及参与度所满足的一个性质.3.1相关定义定义1(模糊对象).本文中的模糊对象,表示为一个空间中离散点的集合,定义如下:A= {〈a,L(a)〉|L(a)>0},其中A表示模糊对象,a表示实例,L(a)表示实例a属于模糊对象A的隶属度.图1所示为一个模糊对象A,实例a1、a2属于A的隶属度分别为016,0101.图1模糊对象从图1中可以看出,实例a2属于模糊对象A 的隶属度非常低,对于这样的实例,我们希望计算co-location模式时把它排除,因为在现实生活中,我们认为隶属度非常低的实例对于模糊对象来说没有多大意义.例如老年人,假设80岁隶属度为018,50岁为0102,对于50岁,我们认为它对于老年人这个对象贡献相当少,所以在有些应用中可以把它排除,而只关注那些符合实际应用的期望隶属度值条件的实例,于是我们有以下定义.定义2.给定一个用户自定义的概率阈值f_threshold,称为模糊度阈值,集合A f_thr eshold={a| L(a)E f_thr eshold},表示满足用户自定义模糊度阈值的实例集.如图1中,A012={a1}.定义3(空间邻近关系R).设a,b分别为模糊对象A,B的实例,它们之间的距离用欧几里德距离计算,表示为d(a,b)=+a-b+.由此可以定义空间邻近关系R:若两个实例之间的欧几里德距离小于等于阈值dis_thr eshold,即d(a,b)F dis_thr esh-old,则表示它们邻近.当两个空间实例a和b之间满足空间邻近关系R时,称这两个空间实例R邻近,记为R(a,b),并在图中用线段连接它们(如图2所示).图2模糊对象参与度一个空间co-location模式表示的是一组空间对象的集合.co-location模式的长度称为此co-location 模式的阶,即co-location模式里空间对象的个数.例如co-location模式c={A,B,C},则称模式c是3阶co-location模式.设有空间实例集I={i1,i2,,,i l},如果有{R(i j,i k)|1F j F l,1F k F l},则称I是一个团1948计算机学报2011年(clique ).如果团I 包含了co -locatio n 模式c 中的所有对象,并且I 没有任何一个子集可以包含c 中的所有对象,那么I 是co -location 模式c 的一个行实例(称为co -lo cation 实例).co -lo cation 模式c 的所有行实例的集合称为表实例,记为table _instance(c).例如图2中,co -location {A,B,C}的表实例为{{a 2,b 1,c 1},{a 2,b 3,c 1}}.定义4(模糊参与率). 设f i 为某个空间模糊对象,f i 在k 阶的co _location 模式c 中的模糊参与率表示为FP R (c,f i ),它是f i 的实例在空间co -location 模式c 的表实例中不重复出现的实例的隶属度之和与f i 中总实例个数的比率,公式如下:FP R (c,f i )=E 1@L (a)|table _instance({f i })|,其中a I Ffi(table _instance(c)),而F 是关系投影操作.定义5(模糊参与度).模糊对象的空间co -location 模式c ={f 1,f k }的模糊参与度表示为FPI (c),是模式中所有空间对象FP R 值中的最小值,公式表示如下:F PI (c)=m in ki =1{F PR(c,f i )}.设min _p r ev 是用户给定的最小参与度阈值,当FPI (c)E min _p r ev 时,称模糊对象的co -lo catio n 模式c 是频繁的.例1. 图2所示为3个空间模糊对象A ={(a 1,012),(a 2,014),(a 3,016),(a 4,018)},B ={(b 1,013),(b 2,016),(b 3,018)},C ={(c 1,011),(c 2,017)},R 关系用连线表示,假设min _p r ev =012.则在co -location 模式c ={A ,C}中,FP R (c,A )=(1@014+1@018)/4=013,而FP R (c,C)=(1@011)/2=0105,则F PI (c )=min {013,0105}=0105,co -lo cation 模式c 为非频繁模式.定义4说明:假设模糊对象A 有4个实例,图3表示的是A 的一个实例a 1的模糊参与率与其隶属度的关系.横坐标表示a 1属于对象A 的隶属度值,纵坐标表示模糊参与率值,从图中可以看出,当实例a 1的隶属度增加时,它的模糊参与率也会相应增加,因为a 1的模糊参与率值为a 1的隶属度与对象A 的总实例个数的比率.当隶属度为0时表示a 1不属于对象A ,这时模糊参与率自然为0,隶属度为1时表示a 1完全属于对象A,这时它的模糊参与率与传统定义的值一样,为0125.图3 定义4说明3.2 性 质模糊参与率与参与度满足如下的一个引理和定理.引理1.模糊参与率(FPR)和模糊参与度(FPI )随着co -location 模式阶的增大单调递减.证明. 假设某个模糊空间对象的实例包含在co -location 模式c 的实例中,那么当有co -location 模式c 1A c,这个模糊空间对象的实例也一定包含在模式c 1的实例中,反之则不然,所以模糊参与率是单调递减的.由于模式的模糊参与度取它包含的对象中最小参与率值,当模式的阶增大时,由于模糊参与率是递减的,所以co -location 模式的模糊参与度也是单调递减的.定理1. 如果k 阶co -locatio n 模式c 是频繁的,那么它的任意k -1阶的子co -lo catio n 模式也是频繁的.证明. 根据引理1,k 阶co -location 模式c 的模糊参与度,要小于其k -1阶子co -location 模式,所以若k 阶co -location 模式c 是频繁的,则k -1阶的子co -location 模式肯定也是频繁的.利用定理1可以对候选模式进行剪枝处理,具体的剪枝过程见414节.4 模糊对象co -location 模式挖掘算法首先给出一个模糊对象的co -locatio n 挖掘的基本算法)))FB 算法,接着在其基础上提出3种改进算法,包括剪枝模糊对象、减少实例间的连接、优化剪枝步.算法中模糊对象的实例按照实例的模糊度非递增排序.4.1 FB 算法FB 算法采用的是经典jo in_based 算法的思想,循环执行以下4个步骤:(1)产生候选co -location 模式(包括连接步和剪枝步);(2)产生候选co -location 模式的表实例;(3)剪枝(利用用户自定义的参与度阈值min

规则集;步4返回结果.4.2剪枝模糊对象由于co-lo catio n挖掘算法需要对模糊对象的大量实例之间进行距离计算以及连接操作,因此我们应当尽可能剪掉那些不可能存在于co-lo catio n 模式中的模糊对象.基于以上思考,论文提出一种有效的剪枝规则.定理2.对于一个模糊对象A,若它最大模糊参与率值小于给定的最小参与度阈值,则对象A不可能存在于任意的频繁co-lo catio n模式中.证明.反证法.假设模糊对象A存在于某个频繁的co-location模式c中,则我们可以得到FPR(c,A)E min_p rev.模糊对象A在c中的最大参与率为它的所有实例均在co-lo catio n模式c的表实例中,根据模糊参与率的定义,最大模糊参与率值等于模糊对象A的所有实例的隶属度之和与对象A的实例数目的比率,由定理条件可知,它小于给定的最小支持度阈值,这时可以得到F PR(c,A)< min_p rev,与假设矛盾,所以对象A不可能存在于任意的co-location模式中.例2.图2中,设m in_p r ev=016.假设模糊对象C的所有实例均在co-lo cation模式的行实例中, C的最大参与率值等于011/2+017/2=014<016,由定理2可知,C不可能存在于任意的co-location 模式中,这时把对象C剪枝掉.利用定理2,可以在模式挖掘前对对象进行初步剪枝,降低算法的时间复杂性.具体见算法2,其中步骤1为计算每一个模糊对象的最大参与率.算法2.剪枝模糊对象算法.输入:模糊对象集F,实例集FI,参与度阈值min_ p rev,对象的最大参与率T_P R输出:剪枝模糊对象后的F,FI步骤:1.fo r all fuzzy o bject f I F

n模式挖掘过程中仍然有大量实例之间的连接操作,相当耗时.在FB算法基于参与度的剪枝过程中,首先要生成候选模式的表实例,再基于参与度阈值来对候选模式进行剪枝.我们在研究中发现,可以在表实例生成最开始阶段就对某些不可能满足参与度阈值的候选模式进行剪枝,避免表实例之间大量不必要的连接操作,大大提高算法的效率.下面给出定理3,它是减少实例间连接算法的依据.定理3.在co-location模式c中,假设模糊对象A I c,如果A在c的表实例中的实例满足m ax{L(a)}<min_p rev,其中a是对象A的实例,则co-location模式c可以被剪枝掉.证明.因为FP R(c,A)FE ni=1L(a i)|table_instance(A)|F n@max{L(a i)}|table_instance(A)|=n@max{L(a i)}n=max{L(a i)},所以当m ax{L(a)}<m in_p r ev时co-location模式可以被剪枝(假设模糊对象A的实例数是n).例3.图2中,考虑2阶co-location模式c= {A,B},每个对象的实例序按隶属度非递增进行排序,假设min_p rev=017.对象A与对象B实例的R1950计算机学报2011年关系中,a 4与B 的实例不存在R 关系,与B 存在R 关系的最大隶属度实例为a 3,而a 3的隶属度为016<min _p r ev ,所以模式c ={A ,B}可以被提前剪枝,这样就不用计算实例a 2,a 1与对象B 的实例之间的关系.从定理3可知,只要模式中任何一个对象,它在模式表实例中的实例的最大模糊度小于参与度阈值,则可以对该模式进行剪枝.于是可以得到减少实例间连接的改进算法,具体见算法3,其中变量max _f lag 为判断是否最大模糊度实例条件,因为对象的实例顺序已经按照实例模糊度非递增排序,所以在实例连接过程中,第一次实例间的连接即为模式每个对象具有最大模糊度的实例间的连接.算法3. 减少实例间的连接算法.输入:频繁k 阶模式p 1k ,p 2k ,模式p 1k ,p 2k 的表实例t 1k ,t 2k ,p 1k ,p 2k 连接生成的k +1阶候选模式c 3k +1输出:候选模式c 3k

-1阶子集不是频繁的.本文根据第2部分中的定理1提出一种新的剪枝策略,它不用去比较c 的每一个k -1阶子集是否频繁,就可以对候选模式进行剪枝.实验和理论分析表明,新的剪枝步策略要比传统的策略具有更好的时间复杂性.对候选k 阶模式C k 增加一个相应的计数数组.该计数数组产生的过程和功能简单描述如下:当频繁模式进行连接产生候选co -location 模式时,增加一个计数数组.连接过程中每产生一个候选co -location 模式,数组就相应地增加一位,用来存储该候选模式的频繁k -1阶子模式的个数.由定理1可知,每一个k 阶候选模式,其(k -1)阶子模式都是频繁的且为k 个,所以最后可以根据数组相应位的值来判断对应的候选模式是否频繁.以下是具体的处理方法和过程.图4 优化剪枝步算法图4(a )中,假设已得到2阶频繁模式为P 2={A B,AC,AD,B C,BD},这时基于P 2连接产生3阶候选模式过程为:首先增加一个计数数组CR ,对于P 2中的模式,计算A B,由于C 3为空,所以对数组CR 不做任何处理.接着A B 开始与P 2中其它频繁模式连接产生候选模式,A B 和AC 连接产生候选195110期欧阳志平等:模糊对象的空间Co -location 模式挖掘研究模式A BC ,这时相应地将数组CR 增加1位,并将其值加1.A B 与A D 连接产生候选模式AB D ,数组CR 增加1位,并将其值加1.A B 连接完成,开始考虑A C,先扫描3阶候选模式,由于A C 是A BC 的子集,所以CR[1]加1.接着A C 与A D 进行连接产生候选模式A CD ,CR [3]加1,依此循环,直到P 2中所有频繁模式连接完成,详细过程见图4(b).最后C 3={ABC,A BD,ACD,BCD},数组CR ={3,3,2,2},由于A CD 和BCD 计数位不为3,所以对其进行剪枝.对于每一个k 阶候选模式,若其频繁子模式个数不为k,则对其进行剪枝.通过证明,新的剪枝步策略比传统的具有更好的时间复杂性,以下给出证明.证明. 假设C k 中有m 个模式,P k -1中有n 个频繁(k -1)阶模式,在传统剪枝步中,每一个k 阶模式有k 个(k -1)阶子模式需要与P k -1进行比较,其时间复杂度为k @m @n,而在新的剪枝歩策略中,只需对P k -1中每一个模式扫描一遍C k ,其时间复杂度小于m @n,由此可知新策略的时间复杂度更优.改进算法的伪代码见算法4.算法4. 优化剪枝步算法.输入:k 阶频繁模式集P k ,存储对应的候选模式的频繁子集数目CR[]输出:k +1阶候选模式集C k +1步骤:1.fo r (i =1;i F P k

的计算机上运行.实验所采用的实例数据均是随机产生的并均匀分布在100@100空间里,模糊对象的数目为10,模糊度的值从0到1,也是随机产生的.表1给出了实验的参数以及默认值.表1 实验数据的参数说明参数默认值实例数目500参与度阈值015距离阈值15模糊度阈值5.1 FB 算法与其改进算法的性能比较在这一小节中,本文将对模糊对象co -location 挖掘算法(FB)与其改进算法进行比较,改进算法包括剪枝对象算法(PO)、剪枝对象基础上的减少实例间连接的算法(PO_RI)、剪枝对象且减少实例间连接基础上的优化剪枝步算法(PO_RI_PC).5.1.1 实例数目对算法的影响首先考查实例数目对算法的影响,实例数目从500增加到5000.从图5可以看出,随着实例数目增加,所有算法的运行时间都增加,因为随着实例数目的增加,算法实例间距离计算、连接操作也会增加.PO_RI 和PO_RI _PC 算法由于采用了减少实例间的连接改进算法,故随着实例数目的增加,它的处理时间上升的幅度比较小,这也说明了减少实例间连接改进算法的高效性.图5 实例数目对算法的影响5.1.2 参与度阈值对算法的影响下面研究参与度阈值对算法的影响,参与度阈值的变化从018到012.从图6中可以看出,FB 算法和PO 算法的运行时间随着参与度阈值的降低而急剧上升,而PO_RI 算法和PO_RI_PC 算法的运行时间一直保持平稳,这是因为随着参与度阈值的降低,更多的co -lo cation 模式满足参与度阈值条件,1952计 算 机 学 报2011年使得FB 和PO 算法运行时间急剧上升,而PO_RI 和PO_RI_PC 算法由于采用了减少实例间的连接改进算法,所以运行时间一直较平稳.从图中还可以看出当参与度阈值在014到012区间时,FB 和PO 算法运行时间基本一样,这是因为PO 算法采用的是剪枝模糊对象改进算法,它依赖于参与度阈值,当自定义的参与度阈值非常低时,算法很难剪枝掉很多的模糊对象,所以两个算法的运行时间相差不大.图6 参与度阈值对算法的影响5.1.3 距离阈值对算法的影响接下来考虑距离阈值对算法运行时间的影响,距离阈值变化从10~40.从图7中可以看出,类似于实例数目对算法的影响,随着距离阈值增大,FB 和PO 算法运行时间快速上升,而PO_RI 和PO_RI_PC 算法上升较平稳.图7 距离阈值对算法的影响5.1.4 模糊度阈值对算法的影响本组实验的最后考虑模糊度阈值对算法的影响,模糊度阈值从0到015变化.从图8中可以看出,当模糊度从0到012时,4个算法的运行时间均上升,而在012以后,4个算法的运行时间又开始下降,这是因为把模糊对象的那些不满足模糊度阈值的,具有低模糊度的实例剪去后,剪枝掉实例的对象的参与率值会增大,这时满足参与度阈值条件的模式数目会增多,使得算法运行时间上升.但是随着模糊度阈值的不断增大,要剪去对象的实例也越多,这就意味着一个对象具有的实例数目越来越少,就会减少模式产生的数目,使得算法的运行时间下降.图8 模糊度阈值对算法的影响5.2 模糊挖掘算法与传统算法的比较在这一小节,本文用模糊对象co -lo cation 挖掘算法,与传统挖掘算法的结果进行实验比较.这里传统算法采用的是co -lo cation 挖掘算法中最为经典的join_based 算法[2].考虑实例个数、参与度阈值、距离阈值、模糊度阈值对两种算法的影响,其中模糊对象co -location 模式挖掘算法采用的是PO_RI_PC 算法.5.2.1 实例个数对算法的影响首先,考虑实例个数对两种不同算法的影响,实例数目从500增加到5000.从图9中可以看出,两种算法的模式数目都随着实例数目的增加而增加.Join_based 算法产生的模式数目远大于PO_RI_PC 算法,这是因为PO_RI_PC 算法模式参与度的计算是根据实例的模糊度来计算的,而传统算法中没有区分实例之间模糊度的差别,这导致了后者的参与度要高于前者,在相同参与度阈值条件下,后者频繁模式数目要明显高于前者.图9 实例个数对算法的影响5.2.2 参与度阈值对算法的影响图10 参与度阈值对算法的影响接下来考虑参与度阈值对算法的影响,阈值变化从018到012.从图10中可以看出两种算法的模195310期欧阳志平等:模糊对象的空间Co -location 模式挖掘研究式数目随着阈值降低都在增加,在低参与度阈值条件下,比如阈值为012,两者的频繁模式数目比较接近.5.2.3 距离阈值对算法的影响接下来考虑距离阈值对算法的影响,距离阈值的变化从10~40.从图11中可以看出,两种算法的模式数目都上升,但PO _RI _PC 算法上升较慢,因为限制频繁模式个数的因素还有参与度.图11 距离阈值对算法的影响5.2.4 模糊度阈值对算法的影响最后来看模糊度阈值对算法的影响,模糊度阈值的变化从0~015.从图12中可以看出,Jo in_based 算法的模式个数保持不变,因为模糊度没有参与模式参与度的计算中.而PO_RI_PC 算法生成的模式个数开始上升,后来出现下降,原因可以见实验51114节中的分析.图12 模糊度阈值对算法的影响6 结 论尽管空间co -lo cation 模式挖掘是一种非常有价值的空间挖掘,而且模糊对象也经常出现在许多重要的应用中,但是目前对于模糊对象的co -location 模式挖掘的研究还未见报道.本文针对模糊对象的空间co -location 模式挖掘问题,提出了一种基本挖掘算法)))FB 算法,为了提高算法的挖掘效率,文中提出了3种改进算法,包括剪枝对象、减少实例间连接、改进剪枝步.通过大量的实验表明,本文提出的算法及改进算法是非常有效的.下一步的工作将在此论文的基础上,考虑模糊度阈值在一个范围内变化时的空间co -location 模式挖掘问题.参考文献[1]W ang L-i Zhen ,Zhou L-i H ua,Ch en H ong -M ei et al.T he Principle and Applications of Data W arehous e and Data M ining.2nd Edition.Beijing:Science Press,2009(in Chin

基于多特征描述的乳腺癌肿瘤病理自动分级摘要:为了辅助病理医生快速高效诊断乳腺癌并提供乳腺癌预后信息,提出一种计算机辅助乳腺癌肿瘤病理自动分级方法。
该方法使用深度卷积神经网络和滑动窗口自动检测病理图像中的细胞;随后综合运用基于稀疏非负矩阵分解的颜色分离、前景标记的分水岭算法以及椭圆拟合得到每个细胞的轮廓。
基于检测到的细胞和拟合出的细胞轮廓,提取出肿瘤的组织结构特征和上皮细胞的纹理形状特征等共203维的特征,运用这些特征训练支持向量机分类器(SVM),实现对病理组织图像自动分级。
17位患者的49张H&E染色的乳腺癌病理组织图像自动分级的100次十折交叉检验评估结果表明:基于病理图像的细胞形状特征与组织的空间结构特征对病理图像的高、中、低分化等级分类整体准确率为90.20%;同时对高、中、低各分化等级的区分准确率分别为92.87%、82.88%、93.61%。
相比使用单一结构特征或者纹理特征的方法,所提方法具有更高的准确率,能准确地对病理组织图像中肿瘤的高级和低级分化程度自动分级,且各分级之间的准确率差异较小。

In the proposed algorithm,cells of pathological images were first automatically detected by deep convolutional neural network and sliding window. Then,the algorithms of color separation based on sparse nonnegative matrix factorization,marker controlled watershed,and ellipse fitting were integrated to get the boundary of each cell. A total of203dimensional imagederived features,including architectural features of tumor,texture and shape features of epithelial cells were extracted from the pathological images based on the detected cells and the fitted boundary. A Support Vector Machine (SVM)classifier was trained by using the extracted features to realize the automated grading of pathological images. In order to verify the proposed algorithm,a total of 49 Hematoxylin & Eosin (H&E)stained breast pathological images obtained from 17 patients were considered. The experimentalresults show that,for 100 tenfold crossvalidation trials,the features with the cell shape and the spatial structure of organization of pathological image set successfully distinguish test samples of low,intermediate and high grades with classification accuracy of 90.20%. Moreover,the proposed algorithm is able to distinguish high grade,intermediate grade,and low grade patients with accuracy of 92.87%,82.88% and 93.61%,respectively. Compared with the methods only using texture feature or architectural feature,the proposed algorithm has a higher accuracy. The proposed algorithm can accurately distinguish the grade of tumor for pathological images and the difference of accuracy between grades is small.英文关键词Key words:breast cancer;pathological image;automated pathological grading;computeraided prognosis 0引言美国癌症协会2015年发布的数据显示,预计2015年美国女性乳腺癌新增病例仍居女性所有癌症病例的首位,占所有新增癌症病例的29%[1]。

Survey and Classification of Spatial Object Manipulation Techniques Sriram Subramanian1 & 21IPO, Center for User-System Interaction &s.subramanian@tue.nl; w.a.ijsselsteijn@tue.nlAbstractThis paper outlines a classification scheme for spatial object manipulation techniques based on naturalness, range of interaction space, degrees of freedom, and atomic actions. Design implications of each category are discussed. Subsequently, a number of current 3D input devices are reviewed in light of the proposed classification scheme and some general conclusions are drawn highlighting some of the limitations of current 3D input devices.1. IntroductionThe rapid pace of technological advances in computing power, display development, and interface design enables the creation of computer models and simulations of increasing complexity. As three-dimensional (3D) computer-generated visualizations are being used more widely in areas such as medicine, financial data visualization, product design, and architecture, the search for usable input devices for manipulating 3D objects becomes of greater relevance to many disciplines. In the traditional two-dimensional (2D) graphical user interface (GUI), the computer mouse established itself early as the de facto standard 2D input device. As yet, there is no such clear winner for 3D interfaces, and there may never be. Indeed, most of the 3D interfaces designed to date can be characterized by a trend of divergence to special-purpose, task-specific interfaces and devices. Difficulties in establishing a standard 3D input device include •the engineering challenges in terms of sensor technologies,•limited knowledge of the most effective ways for humans to interact with synthetic 3D environments, and•application and task-specific demands and constraints.There has been a considerable research and development effort in recent years aimed at 3D interaction and user interfaces. An impressive number of papers are available that provide information on this topic. In a recent survey paper, Hand [1] provides an overview of the state of the art in 3D interaction techniques, but does not discuss input devices themselves in any great depth. Shumin Zhai [2], in a special issue on ‘Interaction in 3D Graphics’of the SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics Newsletter, provides an excellent practical comparison of some 6DOF input devices based on aspects of their usability. Wuthrich [3] presents new insights into the theoretical aspects of 3D interface design from the system theory point of view. An up-to-date annotated bibliography of 3D user interface papers is available online [4].This paper is not intended as a comprehensive literature review of 3D interaction. Rather, it is our aim to provide an overview of the latest developments in 3D input for spatial interaction, based on a number of relevant characteristics that provide a framework for classification. The remainder of this paper is organized as follows: Section 2 presents the general characteristics we have identified as important in classifying the interaction devices, namely naturalness, ranges of interaction supported, degrees of freedom supported, and type of action supported. Section 3 then discusses a number of recently introduced interaction devices in terms of the classification scheme presented in section 2. 2. Classification Scheme2.1 NaturalnessPerhaps the most important hint in designing 3D interfaces can be derived from observations of how we interact with the real world. By the time we reach adulthood we have perfected many manipulation and navigation skills to the point where we canperform many tasks without conscious attention. The interface becomes invisible. It is this level of naturalness and transparency that one aims to achieve in interacting with computers. When done well, the interaction shouldn’t feel like a human-computer interaction anymore, but rather like a human-product or human-task interaction. The focus should be on interacting through a computer instead of interacting with a computer.One approach that has been used to design interfaces that feel natural is known as the ecological approach, and owes much to the thinking of James Gibson [5][6]. The term 'ecological' refers to the emphasis this theory places on the relationship between the individual and his or her environment. From this perspective, the combined characteristics of the environment and the individual define what is possible for the individual within the environment. In Gibson's terminology, the environment is perceived by the individual as a set of affordances, i.e. ‘the actions a given environment affords to a given acting observer’. Thus, in the ecological approach, perception and action are tightly interlocked and mutually constraining phenomena. This view has important implications for design [7][8][9]. First of all, the tight coupling of perception and action suggests that interfaces providing a unified perception-action space may be very effective for direct spatial manipulation of objects. Several systems have applied this principle in interface design. For example, in the system designed by Schmandt [10], a 3D scene is projected stereoscopically onto a half silvered mirror placed at an angle of 45 deg. The user can then reach underneath the mirror into the 3D scene and manipulate it using a wand. Variations on this system include the ReachIn [11], which uses the SensAble Phantom (discussed later) as a force feedback manipulation device. Other examples of systems with a unified perception-action space include graspable user interfaces[12][13], and the Cubby system [14].A second implication that can be derived from the ecological approach is that one needs to provide the appropriate affordances to the user. The reciprocity between the individual and the environment implies that interface design needs to be tailored to a specific kind of encounter between the user and the system rather than use generic anthropometric standards that apply across a range of behavioral settings. A good example of such a special purpose system is the VR CAD system developed at Delft University of Technology [9], which provides the designer with virtual design tools such as a tong, a brush, a stapler,and a pair of scissors, which afford the appropriate actions. For example, 3D objects can be linked using a stapler, rescaled using a tong, and unlinked using scissors. Thus, these tools afford the behavior for which they were designed in the real world, although they can also offer new functions to users should they so desire.2.2 Ranges of Spatial InteractionIn general, the space that surrounds the user can be meaningfully segmented into several ranges, based on principles of human perception and action. Cutting and Vishton [15] divided the spatial layout surrounding the perceiver into three egocentric regions that grade into one another: personal space, action space and vista space. Personal space refers to the zone that falls within arm’s reach of the observer, thus having a diameter of around 2 meters. Beyond the range of personal space, action space refers to the space of an individual’s public actions. Within this space we can move quickly, speak easily and toss or throw objects. Cutting and Vishton [15] suggest this space is limited to about 30m on the basis of the decline in effectivity of disparity and motion perspective as cues to spatial layout. Beyond this range, vista space stretches out until the visual horizon. Although the vast majority of interaction devices operate within the range of personal space, it is interesting to note that visual display devices have the capability of visualizing virtual objects at all possible ranges, thereby introducing the need for variable mappings of input devices (e.g. a mouse) to their visual counterparts (e.g. a pointer on the screen), or the use of interaction styles that do not rely on spatial mappings, such as speech. When following the design principle that perception and action space should ideally coincide, this limits the range at which interaction objects can be visualized.A slightly different segmentation of interaction space has been proposed by Stappers et al. [16]. Based on the Gibsonian perception-action coupling paradigm, they partition body-scaled space in three ranges: small, middle and large. In the small range we can perform detailed manipulations using our fingers and hands, and receive feedback through detailed vision and haptics. In the middle range we can use our hands, arms and posture to grasp objects and make gestures. The large range is out of reach and is used mainly to provide an overview and a feeling of presence in the environment [17].Interaction devices operate on a variety of spatial scales, and can thus be meaningfullyclassified according to the range of interaction supported by a particular device. As was discussed, each range has its own characteristics in terms of perceptual-motor requirements, supported task and technological constraints. Based on the volume of the interaction space the devices can be classified as•Tablet-size interaction devices: Tablet-size devices have a limitedmanipulating space, which supportsdetailed movements. Typically thesedevices have an interaction spaceequivalent to that of finger and wristmovements. Most of the interactiontools developed belong to thiscategory, such as the mouse, an LCDtablet or the Cubby system [14].•Tabletop-size interaction devices: Tabletop-size devices have a largerinteraction space, roughly within arm’sreach. Devices belonging to thiscategory include the Videodesk [18]and the Build-It system [13].•Room-size interaction devices: These interaction devices can have anentire room as the interaction space.The user can either use the space as anambient context [19] or activelyinteract with it through various trackingdevices and computer visiontechnologies. Effective interactionstyles can include speech or gesture.Examples of such systems are smartrooms [20] or the CAVE [21].2.3 Degrees of freedomTo uniquely specify any point in three-dimensional space one requires at least 3 independent coordinate positions, say (x, y, z). However, many 3D manipulation tasks require the user to manipulate entire objects rather than points. If these objects are rigid and have a specific regular shape (e.g., cube, cylinder, etc), one can specify movements of this object by three translational (x, y, z) and three rotational movements (θ,φ,ϕ - along the x, y, and z-axis respectively). Thus, to be able to manipulate 3D objects, one generally needs 6 degrees of freedom (6 DOF). As a general rule, the degrees of freedom of the task should match the degrees of freedom of the interaction device. When the task has more degrees of freedom than the interaction device, the user interface will need to support a complex dialogue of composed interactions, rather than direct manipulation. The converse can also be inefficient, since in such a case the input device is not physically constrained to the same degrees of freedom as the task [22].Based on the number of degrees of freedom incorporated, interaction devices can be classified as•1 DOF: for example a slider or dial used to control one parameter, such asvolume•2 DOF: a standard mouse has 2 DOF and enables tasks such as selecting ordrawing in 2D space•More than 2 DOF but less than 6 DOF: For 3D interaction more than 2 DOF isrequired. Several modifications to themouse were made to incorporategreater degrees of freedom. But mostof these devices (like the Bat, Rockin’Mouse etc.) have less than 6 DOF.These devices are usually meant forspecific applications that do not require6 DOF.•6 DOF: these input devices, such as the flying mice, and can easily provide thebasic 3D motions like translation androtation.•More than 6 DOF: most of the devices in the previous categories are meant forsingle-handed use. But real worldobservations reveal that we prefer toperform operations with both ourhands. Driven by this motivation manytwo-handed interaction devices arebeing introduced. These devices canprovide up to 12 DOF. Several deviceshave been developed which providevarying DOF between 6 and 12.Motion tracking devices for animationpurposes (e.g. body suits) can have aneven larger number of DOFs (i.e.100+).The above classification has been based on input devices alone. One may also include the output/visualization part in the classification as well. The manipulation device would then represent a region or a point in a three dimensional space. The three dimensions being •The degrees of freedom at input,•The degrees of freedom at output, which includes degrees of freedom for 3Dvisualization (3 DOF), speech/ audio,force feedback etc.•Separability or integrability of the input and the output devices [23]. This wouldsignify to what extent action andperception space would coincide, asdiscussed in 2.1.Figure 2. ThePhantom2.4 Type of actionEvery specific application domain has certain tasks that need to be performed. Tasks can be common to different application domains. A task in itself is a coordinated or logical performance of actions. For any application domain we can draw an application-task-action hierarchy tree as in Figure 1.There are several kinds of elementary actions. Wuthrich [3] introduced a classification based on the number of elementary or atomic actions that can be performed. These can be reduced to the following three:• Selection/Grabbing:The action of grabbing secures a firm interaction with surrounding objects for comfortable manipulation.• Positioning:Displacing objects by movements from one position to another, whilst retaining the object's shape and size.• Deforming:This action enables modification of the shape and size of the objects.While it is possible to change the shape of an object by selecting a point within the object and repositioning that point, we regard this to be a composite of two atomic actions (selecting and positioning) rather then the atomic action of deforming. In our view,deforming takes place when an input device enables direct manipulation of the object shape, for instance through molding it, as in the cube-based shape deformation interface This set of basic atomic operations is only for object manipulation and it should be kept in mind that some operations like zooming are view manipulations rather than object manipulations, thus falling under a different classification scheme.3. Overview of Current 3D Object Manipulation Schemes3.1 PhantomThe Phantom, developed by SensAble Technologies Inc [24], is a 6 DOF input device which also provides force feedback (only 3DOF). The mechanical motors and pulleys detect the position of a stylus. The strength of the Phantom is in its ability to provide 3D touch capabilities, thus making it good as ahaptic interface. The Phantom is being used in many 3D CAD/CAM and medical applications. Different types of Phantom can support different interaction ranges, from tablet-size to tabletop-size. The basic atomic operations that are best supported by the Phantom are selecting and positioning. As mentioned earlier, the Phantom has been integrated into the ReachIn system which offers a unified perception-action space.3.2 BatWare investigated interaction techniques for a six degree-of-freedom magnetic tracker,which he refers to as "the Bat" [25][26]. The Bat can be used as a relative positioning device, i.e. a button on the Bat acts as a clutch allowing or disallowing movement, enabling users to employ a "ratcheting" technique to perform large translations or rotations. The Bat is a 6 DOF input device, it can be used for positioning and selecting actions. The range of interaction is limited to tablet-size manipulations.3.3 Laser Pointer ProThe Laser Pointer Pro [27] replaces the cursor as an interaction device. A beam is cast from the user's pointer in a straight line. The first object to be intersected by the ray is selected for further manipulation. This has the advantage that it allows "action at a distance"(AAAD). The user does not need to be close to the object in order to manipulate it. The Laser Pointer was first introduced for the MacApplication1 Application2 …Task1Task2Task3…Action1Action2Action3…Figure 1. Application-Task-Action Hierarchyoperating system but is now available for many other operating systems. The Laser Pointer could be used for any range of interaction, though it would be well suited for room-size interactions. The basic atomic operations that can be performed are selecting/grabbing and positioning operations. The device has only two degrees of freedom for positioning, while it has 3 DOF for selecting.3.4 JDCADJDCAD [28] is a solid modeling system,which is operated using a Bat, and uses a cone-shaped selection volume rather than a simple line (as used in Laser Pointer Pro) to overcome problems associated with selecting small objects. By switching modes, the Bat can be used to interactively rotate and move the model under construction, select objects for subsequent operations or orient and align individual pieces of the model. The atomic actions and range of interaction supported is the same as with the Bat.3.5 Rockin' MouseThe Rockin’ Mouse introduced by Balakrishnan et al [29] retains the characteristics of the mouse while providing a curved base allowing the mouse to be tilted in 2 directions. The amount of tilt can be perceived and provides 2 extra degrees of freedom over the conventional mouse. Theprototype implementation works on a Wacom digitizing tablet [30]. The authors were able to demonstrate that the Rockin' Mouse can provide at least a 30% performance gain over the regular mouse for 3D positioning tasks . On the other hand, since a muscle group that is different from those of the x-y mouse motion operates the depth dimension, it can be difficult to produce precise, simultaneous, co-ordinated motion using the Rockin' Mouse [2].The interaction space of this device is limited to tablet-size manipulations. The atomic actions are selection and positioning.3.6 3-DrawSachs’ 3-Draw system [31] is a computer-aided design tool that facilitates the sketching of 3D curves. In 3-Draw, the user holds a stylus (6 DOF) in one hand and a tablet (6DOF) in the other. These tools serve to draw and view a 3D virtual object, which is seen on a desktop monitor. The palette is used to view the object, while motion of the stylus relative to the palette is used to draw and edit the curves making up the object. The 3-Draw system enables two-handed tablet-size interactions for selecting and positioning object. Sachs notes that "users require far less concentration to manipulate objects relative to each other than if one object were fixed absolutely in space while a single input sensor controlled the other".3.7 Cube based input device for 3D shape deformationMurakami and others [32] propose an interface where a cube is the basic and general control volume shape for 3D shape deformation. The shape deformations are measured using electrically conductive elastic polyurethane foams. The interface provides a direct and intuitive way of manipulating a 3D shape modeled and displayed on the computer screen. The user can deform the control volume and objective shape displayed on the screen by pressing, bending, and twisting the input device cube with the bare hands. Theauthors explain that although the interface is intuitive, it is only useful for designing basic shapes. The shape data need to be transferred to a 3D CAD system for finishing. This 2-handed interface can be used for performing a deformation style atomic action. The range of interaction is limited to tablet-size and canpotentially have up to 6 DOF.Figure 3. Rockin'MouseFigure 4. Concept of the shape deformationinterface3.8 FrogThe Frog [33] is a small 6 DOF, magnetic tracker, similar to the Bat, that measures location and orientation. The Frog is symmetrical and can be used comfortably by both hands. The device has been used as a 2-handed interaction device for CAD modeling.A complaint of the subjects in the experiments is that the wire hindered in the free operation of the device (p. 187).3.9 Passive Interface PropsHinckley et al [34] proposed a two-handed interaction device for neurosurgical visualization using several props. The surgeon is provided with a head prop , a small rubbersphere which corresponds to the patient's inter-hemispheric fissure, for manipulating the individual patients data (like zooming, rotation etc), a cutting plane prop for specifying the position and orientation of an arbitrary slice through the patients anatomy, and a trajectory selection prop, which allows to specify 3D vectors and points. The interface provides 3D interaction but evaluations showed that the user felt a distance between the interaction and the visualization. This interface can be used for tablet-size interactions and for the atomic actions of selection and positioning.3.10 Image plane interaction techniques in 3D immersive environmentsThis technique [35] is based on the 1980's comedy show "The Kids in the Hall" and operates on 3D objects at a distance by interacting with their 2D projections on the image plane. The idea is of using the position of the users hand relative to the image plane and using that point as a 2D cursor for selecting objects from the scene. Several metaphors are used like Head Crusher, Sticky Finger, Lifting Palm, Framing Hands etc. This interaction style is suited for tabletop and room-size interaction spaces and can supportall the atomic actions. It supports at least 4degrees of freedom.3.11 Cubic MouseThe Cubic Mouse [36] consists of a cube shaped case with three rods and control buttons. The rods are approximately orthogonal and represent the axes of a co-ordinate system. The device has a tracker embedded which can enable users to intuitively specify three-dimensional co-ordinates in graphics applications, where it is necessary to view slices of volumetric data.This two-handed interaction device has 6DOF. The interaction space is limited to tablet and tabletop-size. The atomic operations thatcan be performed is positioning.3.12 ChameleonThe Chameleon Error! Reference source not found., developed at the University of Toronto, consists of a high-fidelity monitor palm computer which makes the user spatially aware of their location and orientation in an information space, by integrating the 3D input controller and output display. A response button and a 6D input device are attached to the small monitor. The user can navigate in a 3D-information space using the monitor. The system is modeled after the "eye-in-hand"metaphor. The user can select objects by lining up the cross-hair cursor with the desired object and clicking on the response button. The set of hand movements provide the user with a 3D sensation. However, the users felt they had an object view instead of egocentric view. The interaction space is scalable from tablet-size to room-size depending on the tracking technology used. The prototype Chameleon described in [37] is tethered by cords due to the video feed and 6D input device.3.13 Personal Interaction PanelThe Personal Interaction Panel or PIP [38]consists of a pad and pen tracked using a Polhemus Fasttrak 6 DOF tracking sensors for interaction and a see-through head-mounted display (HMD), for visualization. The position and orientation tracking of all three partsFigure 5. A user Selecting withthe interface Prop Figure 6. The Cubic Mouseallows accurate evaluation of the spatial relations for perspective matching of the real and augmented environments. The PIP can be used for multi-person table-size interaction with CAD applications and volume-data browsing. It has a maximum of 6 DOF and can perform selection and positioning operations.Zsolt [38] signals the need for using wireless technology to seamlessly integrate the PIP into the user's environment.4. ConclusionThe variety of spatial input devices reviewed in this paper illustrates the ongoing specialization of these interfaces, catering to the user needs in relation to specific tasks rather than providing a ‘one size fits all’solution.There appears to be a trend towards more natural and intuitive input devices, with an effort towards unifying perception and action space and providing two-handed interaction. It has been argued in [39] that 2 hands do more than just save time over one hand. The users have a keen sense of where their hands are relative to one another and this can help develop interactions which are potentially less demanding of visual attention.From reviewing the 3D input device literature it is evident that little formal evaluations are available for the different interfaces. Interfaces that perform similar tasks are seldom being compared in terms of performance or usability. However, a number of informal studies have reported that wires hindered effortless interaction, thereby suggesting that incorporating wireless technology into the design of input devices has added value. In addition, most informal studies report a user preference towards devices that support relative positioning (like the Bat)rather than absolute positioning.Clearly, more user evaluations are needed,especially in the early design stages of the input device, so that prospective users can have a real impact on the final outcome of the design.5.
