Compass Maps was a United States U.S. publisher of road maps. It was based in Modesto, California . It was founded in 1963 by Dick and Shirley Elke. They produced high quality maps of Northern and Southern California. They also did some maps of places in Nevada Reno, Las Vegas , as well as Salt Lake City, Utah. In 2007, they had nearly 100 area maps that they produced. However, the company shut down in March 2008 for reorganization, then reopened in May of that same year, to only shut down, this time for good, in June 2008. They are no longer a business, and are in bankruptcy. The owner of the company is going to bankruptcy court soon. Compass Maps are getting harder and harder to find, as they are not made anymore. However, some may be still found at stores such as Staples, and also at Longs Drugs CVS a drugstore in the West Coast which Compass Maps sold a lot of maps to. The atlases that Compass Maps made, are virtually nonexistent at this point. However there are a few places that still have backstock of their atlases, which there was a total of 19 titles in the end. While they were still a company, they were located on 1172 Kansas Avenue in Modesto, just west of Highway 99. The space building has since been sold, and there is a new occupant there.

Diffusion maps,introduced by R.R. Coifman and S. Lafon in ref name DifussionMap ref name Diffusion ,is a machine learning algorithm for dealing with dimensionality reduction . Different from other dimensionality reduction methods such as Principle Component Analysis PCA and Multi dimensional Scaling MDS , diffusion maps is a non linear method and focus on discovering the underlying manifold that the data is embedded. By integrating local similarities at different scales, diffusion maps gives a global description of the data set. Compared with other methods, diffusion maps is robust to noise perturbation and is computationally inexpensive. Definition of Diffusion Maps Follow by ref name Introduction , Diffusion Maps can be defined in four steps. Connectivity Diffusion maps leverages the relationship between heat diffusion and random walk Markov Chain . The basic observation is that if we take a random walk on the data, walking to a nearby data point is more likely than walking to another that is far away. Based on this, the connectivity between two data points, math x math and math y math , can be defined as the probability of walking from math x math to math y math in one step of the random walk. Usually, this probability will be defined as the kernel function on the two points, for example, for the popular Gaussian kernel math p x,y k x,y e frac x y 2 alpha math The kernel function ... structure of the data set have high probability.
