3. _R_o_a_d_m_a_p
This chapter discusses where the individual tools are
located, where documentation can be obtained, and how the
sample files are organized.
3.1 _T_o_o_l__L_o_c_a_t_i_o_n_s
All tools are located in the directory /_u_s_r/_s_b_i_n. The
following table lists the full name of each tool and the
executable name
MineSet Tool Manager mineset
Evidence Visualizer eviviz
Map Visualizer mapviz
Record Viewer recordview
Rules Visualizer ruleviz
Scatter Visualizer scatterviz
Splat Visualizer splatviz
Tree Visualizer treeviz
MineSet WebLaunch mineset_weblaunch
Mineset makemtr mineset_makemtr
Data Mover datamove
Association Rules Generator assoccvt, assocgen, and mapassocgen
MineSet Batch submitter mineset_batch
Inducers and Mining Utilities MIndUtil
Note that the statistics visualizer is currently built into
the tool manager and cannot be independently launched.
3.2 _D_o_c_u_m_e_n_t_a_t_i_o_n
Documentation for each of the tools is in the _M_i_n_e_S_e_t _U_s_e_r'_s
_G_u_i_d_e IRIS InSight online book.
Extensive documentation about mineset_weblaunch can be found
in /usr/lib/MineSet/examples/www/README
3.3 _S_a_m_p_l_e__D_a_t_a__S_e_t_s
There are several types of sample data sets available.
Sample client data are datasets that reside on the client
workstation and can be read into the Tool Manager. Sample
database data are datasets that are intended to be loaded
into a database on the server. Tool-specific examples have
already been processed and can be viewed directly by a
visualization tool. Map Visualizer graphics files provide
various maps for use in the Map Visualizer.

3.3.1 _S_a_m_p_l_e__C_l_i_e_n_t__D_a_t_a Sample data sets that can be used
as client data files are installed on the client in the
directory /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_M_i_n_e_S_e_t/_d_a_t_a. These files can be read
into the Tool Manager and used with any of the tools.
Detailed descriptions of their use with inducers and
classifiers are given in Chapters 9 and 10 of the MineSet
User's guide.
3.3.2 _S_a_m_p_l_e__D_a_t_a__t_o__L_o_a_d__i_n_t_o__D_a_t_a_b_a_s_e_s Some sample data
sets which can be loaded into a database are installed on
the server, in the directory /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_M_i_n_e_S_e_t/_D_B_e_x_a_m_p_l_e_s.
Directions for loading the data into a database can be found
there, as well as in Appendix H of the MineSet User's Guide.
Example scripts for viewing some of this data using each of
the MineSet tools can be found in Appendix H. In general,
these are the same datasets provided as the sample client
data, although there are a few differences.
3.3.3 _T_o_o_l__S_p_e_c_i_f_i_c__E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s Each of the graphics tools
provide a set of examples for that tool in the directory
/_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_M_i_n_e_S_e_t/<_t_o_o_l_n_a_m_e>/_e_x_a_m_p_l_e, where <_t_o_o_l_n_a_m_e>, is
one of _e_v_i_v_i_z, _m_a_p_v_i_z, _r_u_l_e_v_i_z, _s_c_a_t_t_e_r_v_i_z, _s_p_l_a_t_v_i_z, or
_t_r_e_e_v_i_z. For convenience, symbolic links to all of those
directories is also available in /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_M_i_n_e_S_e_t/_e_x_a_m_p_l_e_s.
To launch an example from the Indigo Magic desktop, double
click on one of the configuration files. To invoke it from
the shell, pass it as an argument to the appropriate tool.
Alternatively, any of the examples can be opened from the
specific tool's File|Open menu.
Examples which show the format of the association files can
be found in /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_M_i_n_e_S_e_t/_a_s_s_o_c_g_e_n/_e_x_a_m_p_l_e_s, and
/_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_M_i_n_e_S_e_t/_a_s_s_o_c_c_v_t/_e_x_a_m_p_l_e_s.
3.3.4 _M_a_p__V_i_s_u_a_l_i_z_e_r__G_r_a_p_h_i_c_s__F_i_l_e_s Various maps for the
Map Visualizer are available in the directory
/_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_M_i_n_e_S_e_t/_m_a_p_v_i_z/_g_f_x__f_i_l_e_s. These files are used by
the examples, but may also be useful for your own map
visualizations. Note that some large map sets, such as the
United States zip codes, are included in a separate
subsystem that is not installed by default.
3.3.5 _S_a_m_p_l_e__D_a_t_a__S_e_t_s__A_c_k_n_o_w_l_e_d_g_m_e_n_t_s The breast cancer
data had its origins at the University of Wisconsin
Hospitals, Madison from Dr. William H. Wolberg.

The MineSet Tool Manager can be found in the Applications
page of the icon catalog. From the Toolchest, select
_F_i_n_d/_A_p_p_l_i_c_a_t_i_o_n_s. Then double click on the MineSet icon.
All the MineSet graphics tools are available in the MineSet
page of the icons catalog. This can be selected from the
tabs at the bottom of the catalog. Double click on an icon
to launch the tools.
In addition to the tools, directories containing the various
tool examples are included in the same page. Double click
on a directory to open up the appropriate examples. Within
the example page, double click on a configuration file to
view it with the appropriate tool. Sample directories also
contain data files that go with the configuration files.
(Double clicking on these, edits that file.)
