    • Evaluation of the Visibility of Vessel Movement Features in Trajectory Visualizations 

      Willems, Niels; Wetering, Huub van de; Wijk, Jarke J. van (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      There are many visualizations that show the trajectory of a moving object to obtain insights in its behavior. In this user study, we test the performance of three of these visualizations with respect to three movement ...
    • An Evaluation of Visualization Techniques to Illustrate Statistical Deformation Models 

      Caban, Jesus J.; Rheingans, Penny; Yoo, T. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      As collections of 2D/3D images continue to grow, interest in effective ways to visualize and explore the statistical morphological properties of a group of images has surged. Recently, deformation models have emerged as ...
    • Evolutionary Visual Exploration: Evaluation With Expert Users

      We present an Evolutionary Visual Exploration (EVE) system that combines visual analytics with stochastic optimisation to aid the exploration of multidimensional datasets characterised by a large number of possible views ...
    • Experiments on the Accuracy of Feature Extraction 

      Reinders, Freek; Spoelder, Hans J.W.; Post, Frits H. (The Eurographics Association, 1998)
      Feature extraction is an approach to visualization that ex- tracts important regions or objects of interest algorithmically from large data sets. In our feature extraction process, high-level attributes are cal- culated ...
    • ExPlates: Spatializing Interactive Analysis to Scaffold Visual Exploration 

      Javed, Waqas; Elmqvist, Niklas (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
      Visual exploration involves using visual representations to investigate data where the goals of the process are unclear and poorly defined. However, this often places unduly high cognitive load on the user, particularly ...
    • An Exploratory Study of Data Sketching for Visual Representation 

      Walny, Jagoda; Huron, Samuel; Carpendale, Sheelagh (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      Hand-drawn sketching on napkins or whiteboards is a common, accessible method for generating visual representations. This practice is shared by experts and non-experts and is probably one of the faster and more expressive ...
    • An Exploratory Technique for Coherent Visualization of Time-varying Volume Data 

      Tikhonova, Anna; Correa, Carlos D.; Ma, Kwan-Liu (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2010)
      The selection of an appropriate global transfer function is essential for visualizing time-varying simulation data. This is especially challenging when the global data range is not known in advance, as is often the case ...
    • 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, ...
    • Exploratory Visualization of Animal Kinematics Using Instantaneous Helical Axes 

      Keefe, Daniel F.; O'Brien, Trevor M.; Baier, David B.; Gatesy, Stephen M.; Brainerd, Elizabeth L.; Laidlaw, David H. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2008)
      We present novel visual and interactive techniques for exploratory visualization of animal kinematics using instantaneous helical axes (IHAs). The helical axis has been used in orthopedics, biomechanics, and structural ...
    • 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 Collections of Tagged Text for Literary Scholarship 

      Correll, Michael; Witmore, M.; Gleicher, M. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2011)
      Modern literary scholars must combine access to vast collections of text with the traditional close analysis of their field. In this paper, we discuss the design and development of tools to support this work. Based on ...
    • Exploring Instationary Fluid Flows by Interactive Volume Movies 

      Glau, Thomas (Springer and The Eurographics Association, 1999)
      Volume rendering offers the unique ability to represent inner object data and to realize enclosed structures ""at first glance"". Unlike software-based methods, the use of more and more available specialpurpose hardware ...
    • 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, ...
    • Exploring Traffic Dynamics in Urban Environments Using Vector-Valued Functions 

      Poco, Jorge; Doraiswamy, Harish; Vo, Huy. T.; Comba, João L. D.; Freire, Juliana; Silva, Cláudio T. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      The traffic infrastructure greatly impacts the quality of life in urban environments. To optimize this infrastructure, engineers and decision makers need to explore traffic data. In doing so, they face two important ...
    • Extended Branch Decomposition Graphs: Structural Comparison of Scalar Data 

      Saikia, Himangshu; Seidel, Hans-Peter; Weinkauf, Tino (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)
      We present a method to find repeating topological structures in scalar data sets. More precisely, we compare all subtrees of two merge trees against each other - in an efficient manner exploiting redundancy. This provides ...
