Remote-sensing data offer unprecedented opportunities to address Earth-system-science challenges, such as understanding the relationship between the atmosphere and Earth's surface using physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, and computing. Statistical methods have often been seen as a hybrid of the latter two, so that a lot of attention has been given to computing estimates but far less to quantifying the uncertainty of the estimates. In my "bird's-eye view," I shall give a way to look at the problem using conditional probability models and three states of knowledge. Examples will be given of analyzing remotely sensed data of a leading greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.
Chapter summary and solutions to end-of-chapter exercises for "Data Visualization: Principles and Practice" book by Alexandru C. Telea
Chapter provides an overview of a number of methods for visualizing tensor data. It explains principal component analysis as a technique used to process a tensor matrix and extract from it information that can directly be used in its visualization. It forms a fundamental part of many tensor data processing and visualization algorithms. Section 7.4 shows how the results of the principal component analysis can be visualized using the simple color-mapping techniques. Next parts of the chapter explain how same data can be visualized using tensor glyphs, and streamline-like visualization techniques.
In contrast to Slicer, which is a more general framework for analyzing and visualizing 3D slice-based data volumes, the Diffusion Toolkit focuses on DT-MRI datasets, and thus offers more extensive and easier to use options for fiber tracking.

of measures of location. A geometrical derivation of the most popular measure of location (mean) was
derived from a histogram by determining the centroid of a histogram. The numerical or mathematical

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. Rationale and Objectives for the Vignette “Ratio of Means or Medians”
Rationale: 1) Firstly, the vignette may be used as a vehicle to inform the students regarding
the circumstances related to the discovery of the principle of least squares and the charac-
teristic of some scientists, for good reasons, to set aside newly discovered results for later
publication. 2) Secondly, the vignette may also be used for emphasizing the concept of
least-squares using a very meager dataset (using three data points) and hence emphasizing
the principle of parsimony and simplicity in data analysis. In so doing, the students are
aided in appreciating the concept to be learned by visualizing the concept instead of just
memorizing formulas and the principle in words. The paucity of the dataset should not be
a source of discouragement considering that, as they would later discover in the vignette,
Gauss predicted the position of the asteroid Ceres based only on three data points and
using the principle of least squares! 3) Together with the use of the alternative methods of
averages to come up with alternative estimators, the students experience the value of cre-
ativity, ingenuity, and common sense in discovery. The use of the ratio of medians instead
of the means, as mentioned in the vignette, may also be used to inform the students of
the principle of using robust methods for first-analysis of datasets before having recourse
to more complicated methods.
Objectives: After studying the vignette the students should be able to: 1) give an account
of the discovery of least squares; 2) explain the principle of least squares by using a simple
diagram; 3) appreciate the value of simplicity, parsimony, common sense, ingenuity, creativ-
ity, communication, and accuracy in the process of discovery; 4) identify linear regression
problems wherein the ratio of medians may be more appropriate than the ratio of means;
and, 5) appreciate the value of statistics as a scientific methodology.
Scientific attitudes addressed (based on Roach (1993)) 4 : Skepticism, Communication, Ac-
curacy, Parsimony, Common Sense
Teacher Notes: This vignette should be discussed after the lecture on linear regression.

3. Regression-through-the-origin: Ratio of Means or Medians
by
Justine Leon A. Uro
e-mail: justineuro@yahoo.com
An experimenter wants to determine an equation of a line that can be used to describe
a possible linear relationship between two hypothetical variables, say X and Y . It is known
beforehand that Y = 0 when X = 0. He was also able to obtain three additional pairs
of values for X and Y : (2,3), (3,2), and (4,7). There are a number of ways for obtaining
such a “best-fit-line.” A common (maybe the most common) method is through the use of
the least-squares (LS) criterion, in which case, the estimated line is called the least-squares
(LS) line.
What do you recall about the least-squares criterion? In what sense
is an LS line a “least-squares” line?
For this particular type of dataset, since the LS line has to pass through the origin (0,0)
(regression-through-the-origin method) the LS line is given by y = bx where b = yw /¯w
¯ x
and xw and yw are the weighted arithmetic means (with weighting factor w = X) of the
¯ ¯
variables X and Y , respectively. 5 That is to say, b = ( wi Yi / wi )/( wi Xi / wi ) =
( Xi Yi / Xi )/( Xi Xi / Xi ), or simply b = Xi Yi / Xi2 .
Construct a scatterplot of Y vs. X. Find the weighted means xw , yw ,
¯ ¯
and an equation of the LS line. Overlay the graph of the LS line on the
scatterplot of Y vs. X. Aside from the LS line, what other “best-fit-
lines” have you previously encountered? How does one obtain them?
You may want to graph one of these alternative “best-fit-lines” on
the scatterplot of Y vs. X.
5
This is a more precise formula of the LS estimator of b than that appearing in an earlier version of this
paper in which this author inadvertently used b = y /¯, where x and y were meant to denote the simple or
¯ x ¯ ¯
unweighted arithmetic means of X and Y , respectively. It should, however, be pointed out that using b = y /¯
¯ x
is of particular interest (for regression-thru-the-origin) since it is the zero deviation or ZD estimator—the
sum of the deviations of the predicted from the observed Y values becomes zero for this estimator of b.

4. The earliest publicized use of the LS method is probably that by Karl Friedrich Gauss
who in 1801, at 23 or 24 years old, used this method to predict the position of the asteroid
Ceres as it emerged from the sun based on only three celestial observations of this asteroid
[[1], [2], [3]]. Based on the calculations of Gauss, Hungarian astronomer Franz Xaver von
Zach and German astronomer Heinrich Olbers rediscovered it on December 31, 1801 in
Gotha and January 1, 1802 in Bremen, respectively [[1]]. The asteroid was initially discov-
ered by Italian Giuseppe Piazzi in January 1, 1801 but was able to watch it in its path for
only 40 days before the glare of the sun got in the way [[2]]. Apparently Gauss had been
using the LS method since 1795 but did not publish it until 1809. By then, Frenchman
Adrien-Marie Legendre and Irish-American Robert Adrain had discovered it independently
of each other and of Gauss. Legendre published his results in 1805 and Adrain in 1808.
Do you know of other scientists the publication of whose discoveries
were preceded by colleagues who also discovered them, albeit later?
Please cite examples. Why do you think these discoverers delayed
the publication of their discoveries?
Recall that there are three common measures of average: the mean, median, and mode.
Although the most common is the mean, there are instances wherein the median or the
mode is preferred. For example, the median is preferred over the mean when the dataset is
skewed to the right in that it includes some extremely large values.
Recall that the LS estimator for the slope for the regression-through-
the-origin is b = yw /¯w and is therefore a ratio of two averages, these
¯ x
averages being weighted means. Suggest other estimators for b based
on your knowledge of averages (see the contents of the previous para-
graph). Can you think of instances of datasets wherein it better to
use this kind of average instead of the weighted mean? Cite examples
and justify your answer.
In connection with the determination of the equation of a best-fit-line to describe the
4
5. relationship between two variables, H. Theil (1950; in Daniel (1991, pp. 621-2, 630)) and
E.J. Dietz (1989; in Daniel (1991, pp. 622, 630)) used the median instead of the mean.
A possible estimator for the slope of the regression-through-the-origin line based on their
theory would be b = median (y/x). A similar estimator would be b = median(y)/median(x).
Obtain the regression lines based on these two estimators of b then
graph them on the scatterplot obtained earlier. Compare the three
regression lines obtained to each other based on their graphs.
Gauss in 1829 was able to prove that the least squares method for obtaining a best fit
line is optimal in that among unbiased estimators for the coefficients of the regression line,
the LS method gives those with least variance assuming that the errors are independently
and identically normally distributed (Gaussian distribution) with zero mean and a common
variance. On the other hand, the two methods derived from the work of Theil (1950; in
Daniel (1991, pp. 621-2, 630)) and Dietz (1989; in Daniel (1991, pp. 622, 630)) mentioned
previously are robust in that they are nonparametric (no particular distribution assumed
for the errors).
It can thus be seen that the three methods mentioned above have
their advantages and disadvantages. What can you say about the
relative number of calculations involved in the three different meth-
ods? Cite instances wherein a nonparametric method is better than
a parametric method especially when dealing with datasets that arise
in the physical sciences.
