While the existing approaches rely on the known continuous distribution; to our knowledge, no practical technique exists that approximates the unknown continuous processes. The need for such a technique is heightened with the rise of increasingly larger volumes of data generated by modern systems, while their underlying processes are not fully known. It is important to know that the quality of these approximations can be improved by refining the discretization, however, this comes at the cost of increased computational burden. We thus propose an algorithm that finds a good approximation with minimal discretization based on the convergence behavior of statistical moments. The algorithm was tested with data sets comprising 500 to 1,000,000 data points. The results show robust behavior of the algorithm, especially for the datasets with more than 10,000 data points and for various distribution shapes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21905,"journal":{"name":"SoftwareX","volume":"31 ","pages":"Article 102281"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144694876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Modern applications rely on intricate hierarchies of interconnected objects, making runtime structure analysis crucial for debugging and software comprehension. Traditional approaches such as debuggers, logging, and memory profilers often require significant manual effort to visualize and compare complex object data structures. To address these limitations, we implemented Introspector, a general-purpose tool that provides interactive visualization of any runtime object data structure for applications written in any language compiled to the Java platform. Unlike existing tools, Introspector does not require source code access, supports real-time visualization, and enables automated structural comparisons of object graphs at different execution points. Additionally, it allows for report generation in both text and HTML formats. Introspector is designed to be lightweight, integrating seamlessly into any Java application via its JAR file, not requiring entering debug mode with the corresponding runtime performance overhead of other JDPA-based approaches. Introspector has been successfully applied in multiple domains, including software development, education, and scientific research. It has enabled developers to compare evolving data structures during program execution, educators to visually demonstrate complex programming concepts, and researchers to inspect object data structures such as deep neural networks and biological data structures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21905,"journal":{"name":"SoftwareX","volume":"31 ","pages":"Article 102250"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144672104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
