      Zhang, Yubo; Ma, Kwan-Liu (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Existing real-time volume rendering techniques which support global illumination are limited in modeling distinct realistic appearances for classified volume data, which is a desired capability in many fields of study for ...
    • Designing Multiple Coordinated Visualizations for Tablets 

      Sadana, Ramik; Stasko, John (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      The use of multiple coordinated views (MCV) in data visualization provides analytic power because it allows a person to explore data under a variety of different perspectives. Since this design pattern utilizes multiple ...

      St. Jean, Carmen; Ware, Colin; Gamble, Robert (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      In many planning applications, a computational model is used to make predictions about the effects of management or engineering decisions. To understand the implications of alternative scenarios, a user typically adjusts ...
    • Enhancing Scatterplots with Multi-Dimensional Focal Blur 

      Staib, Joachim; Grottel, Sebastian; Gumhold, Stefan (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Scatterplots directly depict two dimensions of multi-dimensional data points, discarding all other information. To visualize all data, these plots are extended to scatterplot matrices, which distribute the information of ...
    • EuroVis 2016: Frontmatter 

      Kwan-Liu Ma; Giuseppe Santucci; Jarke van Wijk (Eurographics Association, 2016)
    • Evaluating Viewpoint Entropy for Ribbon Representation of Protein Structure 

      Heinrich, Julian; Vuong, Jenny; Hammang, Christopher J.; Wu, Andrew; Rittenbruch, Markus; Hogan, Jim; Brereton, Margot; O'Donoghue, Sean I. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      While many measures of viewpoint goodness have been proposed in computer graphics, none have been evaluated for ribbon representations of protein secondary structure. To fill this gap, we conducted a user study on Amazon's ...
    • Exploratory Visual Analysis for Animal Movement Ecology 

      Slingsby, Aidan; Loon, Emiel van (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Movement ecologists study animals' movement to help understand their behaviours and interactions with each other and the environment. Data from GPS loggers are increasingly important for this. These data need to be processed, ...
    • Exploring and Comparing Clusterings of Multivariate Data Sets Using Persistent Homology 

      Rieck, Bastian; Leitte, Heike (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Clustering algorithms support exploratory data analysis by grouping inputs that share similar features. Especially the clustering of unlabelled data is said to be a fiendishly difficult problem, because users not only have ...
    • Exploring Items and Features with IF,FI-Tables 

      Corput, Paul van der; Wijk, Jarke J. van (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      The exploration of high-dimensional data is challenging because humans have difficulty to understand more than three dimensions. We present a new visualization concept that enables users to explore such data and, specifically, ...
    • Faceted Views of Varying Emphasis (FaVVEs): a Framework for Visualising Multi-perspective Small Multiples 

      Beecham, Roger; Rooney, Chris; Meier, Sebastian; Dykes, Jason; Slingsby, Aidan; Turkay, Cagatay; Wood, Jo; Wong, B. L. William (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Many datasets have multiple perspectives - for example space, time and description - and often analysts are required to study these multiple perspectives concurrently. This concurrent analysis becomes difficult when data ...
    • From Visual Exploration to Storytelling and Back Again 

      Gratzl, Samuel; Lex, Alexander; Gehlenborg, Nils; Cosgrove, Nicola; Streit, Marc (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      The primary goal of visual data exploration tools is to enable the discovery of new insights. To justify and reproduce insights, the discovery process needs to be documented and communicated. A common approach to documenting ...
    • GEMSe: Visualization-Guided Exploration of Multi-channel Segmentation Algorithms 

      Fröhler, Bernhard; Möller, Torsten; Heinzl, Christoph (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      We present GEMSe, an interactive tool for exploring and analyzing the parameter space of multi-channel segmentation algorithms. Our targeted user group are domain experts who are not necessarily segmentation specialists. ...
    • Glyphs for Asymmetric Second-Order 2D Tensors 

      Seltzer, Nicholas; Kindlmann, Gordon (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Tensors model a wide range of physical phenomena. While symmetric tensors are sufficient for some applications (such as diffusion), asymmetric tensors are required, for example, to describe differential properties of fluid ...
    • The Grassmannian Atlas: A General Framework for Exploring Linear Projections of High-Dimensional Data 

      Liu, Shusen; Bremer, Peer-Timo; Jayaraman, Jayaraman Thiagarajan; Wang, Bei; Summa, Brian; Pascucci, Valerio (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Linear projections are one of the most common approaches to visualize high-dimensional data. Since the space of possible projections is large, existing systems usually select a small set of interesting projections by ranking ...
    • Hierarchical Stochastic Neighbor Embedding 

      Pezzotti, Nicola; Höllt, Thomas; Lelieveldt, Boudewijn P. F.; Eisemann, Elmar; Vilanova, Anna (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      In recent years, dimensionality-reduction techniques have been developed and are widely used for hypothesis generation in Exploratory Data Analysis. However, these techniques are confronted with overcoming the trade-off ...
    • How Ordered Is It? On the Perceptual Orderability of Visual Channels 

      Chung, David H. S.; Archambault, Daniel; Borgo, Rita; Edwards, Darren J.; Laramee, Robert S.; Chen, Min (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      The design of effective glyphs for visualisation involves a number of different visual encodings. Since spatial position is usually already specified in advance, we must rely on other visual channels to convey additional ...
    • Interactive 3D Force-Directed Edge Bundling 

      Zielasko, Daniel; Weyers, Benjamin; Hentschel, Bernd; Kuhlen, Torsten W. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Interactive analysis of 3D relational data is challenging. A common way of representing such data are node-link diagrams as they support analysts in achieving a mental model of the data. However, naïve 3D depictions of ...
    • Location-dependent Generalization of Road Networks Based on Equivalent Destinations
