Face representation

In the CHERNOFF faces representation, eachparameter corresponds to one feature. Each face is one object. The CHERNOFF faces of the seven PAH in river sediments after feature standardization are demonstrated in Fig. 5-8. The information is the same as that represented in Fig. 5-7 by star plots but conclusions to be drawn are not so clear. 

The faces may be represented as closed chains of nodes, which are bordering a polyhedral face, (m, v,w,... >. The sequence forms a circulation around the face, in a particular sense (going from ( ) to w) over (u), etc.). The set of face rotations forms the basis for the face representation, which is denoted as /q(/). In a polyhedron the maximal site group of a face is C y, and in this site group the face rotation transforms as the rotation around the C axis, i.e. it is symmetric...

The Challenges Faced in Teaching and Learning About the Representational... 

This section focuses on the more overt challenges that the teaching and learning of the representational triplet face the nature and meaning of macro submicro and symbolic and the relationships between them. 

Alternatively, in order to better understand students mental model of particular content area(s), students can be presented with two concept maps which are constructed with the same concept labels and then probed for their interpretation and comparison of the two representations. This approach would help us to understand which organization of concepts students find easier to grapple with and the difficulties they face with respect to certain linkages of concepts. 

A methyl group may be shown in a structural representation as CH3 or Me, and similar pseudo-elemental symbols are used for ethyl, propyl and butyl side chains. It is cortrmon to represent a phenyl group as either Ph or as a hexagon with a circle irtscribed within it. This circle is meant to represent electron density that lies above and beneath the main plane of the molecule. However, when faced with... 

In the cases we discussed above, students revealed their lack of knowledge of the random distribution of particles, which was consistent with much previous research. This study not only revealed the mis-representation of the diffusion of gases, but also showed the inconsistent mental models that the students held while solving the problems. The result provided some evidence in favor of research that attributes students learning in relation to the context while facing various types of questions. However, this result does not support Vosniadou s framework theory (1994), which implies a consistent mental model used by learners in her study.

The process of field validation and testing of models was presented at the Pellston conference as a systematic analysis of errors (6. In any model calibration, verification or validation effort, the model user is continually faced with the need to analyze and explain differences (i.e., errors, in this discussion) between observed data and model predictions. This requires assessments of the accuracy and validity of observed model input data, parameter values, system representation, and observed output data. Figure 2 schematically compares the model and the natural system with regard to inputs, outputs, and sources of error. Clearly there are possible errors associated with each of the categories noted above, i.e., input, parameters, system representation, output. Differences in each of these categories can have dramatic impacts on the conclusions of the model validation process.

Figure 27. Seven possible cases of the polygonal surface representation in a single pyramid. The Euler characteristic is calculated as a sum of the number of faces and the number of vertices minus the number of edges of the polygons. The black and white circles represent points with higher and lower values relative to the threshold one. The gray area is the schematic representation of the surface inside a pyramid [225].

FIGURE 32. Schematic representation of the geometry changes of a hypothetical model of two facing n-systems with HOMOs Ta and n t,. The neutral molecule is represented in the centre. Upon ionization (removal of an electron from the HOMO it ), the antibonding interactions which prevail in n are reduced, and the distance R decreases. As a consequence, the IT. /t overlap and cr increase. Conversely, upon electron ejection from n+ (or on 7T+ - %- excitation), the bonding interaction in 7T+ is diminished, which has the opposite effect on R and cr as described above...
