Software
- The CCToolbox: The Curve
Clustering Toolbox
A Matlab toolbox for clustering curve data using various probabilistic
curve-based mixture models. This toolbox essentially implements all of the
models described in my dissertation.
- Cyclone Tracking Toolbox (soon to be released)
A Matlab toolbox for identifying and tracking cyclones from raw
MSLP (mean sea-level pressure) data (e.g., in GrADS or NetCDF format).
