      El-Assady, Mennatallah; Gold, Valentin; Acevedo, Carmela; Collins, Christopher; Keim, Daniel (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      We introduce a novel visual analytics approach to analyze speaker behavior patterns in multi-party conversations. We propose Topic-Space Views to track the movement of speakers across the thematic landscape of a conversation. ...
    • Critical Points of Gaussian-Distributed Scalar Fields on Simplicial Grids 

      Liebmann, Tom; Scheuermann, Gerik (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      Simulations and measurements often result in scalar fields with uncertainty due to errors or output sensitivity estimates. Methods for analyzing topological features of such fields usually are not capable of handling all ...
    • Cytosplore: Interactive Immune Cell Phenotyping for Large Single-Cell Datasets 

      Höllt, Thomas; Pezzotti, Nicola; Unen, Vincent van; Koning, Frits; Eisemann, Elmar; Lelieveldt, Boudewijn P. F.; Vilanova, Anna (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
      To understand how the immune system works, one needs to have a clear picture of its cellular compositon and the cells' corresponding properties and functionality. Mass cytometry is a novel technique to determine the ...
    • Decoupled Shading for Real-time Heterogeneous Volume Illumination 

      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 ...
    • Dynamic Change Arcs to Explore Model Forecasts 

      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
