Hasse clustering is an algorithm that extracts common patterns in sequential data and represents them in graphical forms. As the number of expected clusters grows, however, the algorithm can become infeasible to run due to combinatorial complexity. In this article, we describe a theory of gluing wiring diagrams, allowing iterative applications of Hasse clustering to achieve the same result as a single application. We test our theory in the context of classifying videos of figure skating jumps.

Spatial pattern matching is the process of matching query entities and constraints with database entities and relations. It has many applications, including similar region search, housing market search, landmark search, and road network matching. To our knowledge, all existing spatial pattern matching approaches frame the problem in a 2 dimensional space, where entities lie in a cartesian plane and relationships defined between them are contained in 2 dimensions. However, this problem framing has significant limitations when searching for real world entities that have height in addition to position. To address this limitation, we extend spatial pattern matching to 3 dimensions and provide a generalized definition of the problem. We describe a subgraph matching algorithm capable of resolving 3D spatial patterns over distance relations and release two 3D spatial pattern matching datasets, one synthetic and one containing real 3D building data from the city of Hamburg, Germany. We test our subgraph matching algorithm on both datasets and present results as a baseline for future methods to build upon.
