#hcil PairFinder: Identifying and Measuring Temporal Associations from Temporal Event Sequences (Hsueh-Chien Cheng)

also uses temporal events; looks for temporal associations, considering both order and relative time difference
across many records, align by one focal event, as in EventFlow; aggregate into a single timeline; summarize in a histogram on the timeline
to compare across event pairs, there are many histogram combinations; need to organize the most interesting/relevant histogram comparisons
used graduate student dataset as example set, e.g. compare when defense occurred relative to proposals; no defenses before proposal
designed multiple measures of interestingness, e.g. which events occurred most often after focal event; other examples, periodic occurrences
work is still in early stages; looking for other data sets to analyze
