Abstract
In this paper we introduce new computational techniques for extracting the attributes and/or characteristics of the plasma waves and particles from the enormous scientific database. These techniques enable us to represent the characteristics of complicated phenomena using a few key-parameters, and also to analyze large amount of datasets in a systematic way. These techniques are applied to the observational data of the ion heating/acceleration phenomena in the auroral region obtained by the Akebono satellite. Finally we evaluate our algorithms through some correlation analyses between waves and particles and demonstrate their availability.
