      Linear models are commonly used to identify trends in data. While it is an easy task to build linear models using pre-selected variables, it is challenging to select the best variables from a large number of alternatives. ...
    • Visual Multiplexing 

      Chen, Min; Walton, Simon; Berger, Kai; Thiyagalingam, Jeyan; Duffy, Brian; Fang, Hui; Holloway, Cameron; Trefethen, Anne E. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
      The majority of display devices used in visualization are 2D displays. Inevitably, it is often necessary to overlay one piece of visual information on top of another, especially in applications such as multi-field visualization ...
    • Comparative Visualization of Molecular Surfaces Using Deformable Models 

      Scharnowski, Katrin; Krone, Michael; Reina, Guido; Kulschewski, Tobias; Pleiss, Jürgen; Ertl, Thomas (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
      The comparison of molecular surface attributes is of interest for computer aided drug design and the analysis of biochemical simulations. Due to the non-rigid nature of molecular surfaces, partial shape matching is feasible ...
    • ConVis: A Visual Text Analytic System for Exploring Blog Conversations 

      Hoque, Enamul; Carenini, Giuseppe (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
      Today it is quite common for people to exchange hundreds of comments in online conversations (e.g., blogs). Often, it can be very difficult to analyze and gain insights from such long conversations. To address this problem, ...
    • Networks of Names: Visual Exploration and Semi-Automatic Tagging of Social Networks from Newspaper Articles 

      Kochtchi, Artjom; Landesberger, Tatiana von; Biemann, Chris (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
      Understanding relationships between people and organizations by reading newspaper articles is difficult to manage for humans due to the large amount of data. To address this problem, we present and evaluate a new visual ...

      We present an analysis and visualization method for computing what distinguishes a given document collection from others. We determine topics that discriminate a subset of collections from the remaining ones by applying ...
    • Metro Transit-Centric Visualization for City Tour Planning 

      Claudio, Pio; Yoon, Sung-Eui (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
      In general, city trip planning consists of two main steps: knowing Points-Of-Interest (POIs), and then planning a tour route from the current point to next preferred POIs. We mainly consider the metro for traveling around ...
