Force-Directed Edge Bundling for Graph Visualization
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Abstract Graphs depicted as node-link diagrams are widely used to show relationships between entities. However, nodelink diagrams comprised of a large number of nodes and edges often suffer from visual clutter. The use of ... -
Fully Automatic Visualisation of Overlapping Sets
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Visualisation of taxonomies and sets has recently become an active area of research. Many application fields now require more than a strict classification of elements into a hierarchy tree. Euler diagrams, one of the most ... -
Fused Multi-Volume DVR using Binary Space Partitioning
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Multiple-volume visualization is a growing field in medical imaging providing simultaneous exploration of volumes acquired from varying modalities. However, high complexity results in an increased strain on performance ... -
The Gödel Engine - An Interactive Approach to Visualization in General Relativity
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)We present a methodical new approach to visualize the aspects of general relativity from a self-centered perspective. We focus on the visualization of the Gödel universe, which is an exact solution to Einstein s field ... -
Hierarchical Vortex Regions in Swirling Flow
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)We propose a new criterion to characterize hierarchical two-dimensional vortex regions induced by swirling motion. Central to the definition are closed loops that intersect the flow field at a constant angle. The union of ... -
High-Quality Volumetric Reconstruction on Optimal Lattices for Computed Tomography
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Within the context of emission tomography, we study volumetric reconstruction methods based on the Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm. We show, for the first time, the equivalence of the standard implementation of the ... -
Illuminated 3D Scatterplots
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)In contrast to 2D scatterplots, the existing 3D variants have the advantage of showing one additional data dimension, but suffer from inadequate spatial and shape perception and therefore are not well suited to display ... -
Instant Volume Visualization using Maximum Intensity Difference Accumulation
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)It has long been recognized that transfer function setup for Direct Volume Rendering (DVR) is crucial to its usability. However, the task of finding an appropriate transfer function is complex and time-consuming even for ... -
Interactive Visualization of Function Fields by Range-Space Segmentation
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)We present a dimension reduction and feature extraction method for the visualization and analysis of function field data. Function fields are a class of high-dimensional, multi-variate data in which data samples are ... -
iPCA: An Interactive System for PCA-based Visual Analytics
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Principle Component Analysis (PCA) is a widely used mathematical technique in many fields for factor and trend analysis, dimension reduction, etc. However, it is often considered to be a black box operation whose results ... -
Lifted Domain Coloring
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Complex-valued functions are fundamental objects in complex analysis, algebra, differential geometry and in many other areas such as numerical mathematics and physics. Visualizing complex functions is a non-trivial task ... -
MultiClusterTree: Interactive Visual Exploration of Hierarchical Clusters in Multidimensional Multivariate Data
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Visual analytics of multidimensional multivariate data is a challenging task because of the difficulty in understanding metrics in attribute spaces with more than three dimensions. Frequently, the analysis goal is not to ... -
On Visualization and Reconstruction from Non-Uniform Point Sets using B-splines
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)In this paper we present a novel framework for the visualization and reconstruction from non-uniform point sets. We adopt a variational method for the reconstruction of 3D non-uniform data to a uniform grid of chosen ... -
Preconceptions and Individual Differences in Understanding Visual Metaphors
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Understanding information visualization is more than a matter of reading a series of data values; it is also a matter of incorporating a visual structure into one s own thinking about a problem. We have proposed visual ... -
Quasi-interpolation on the Body Centered Cubic Lattice
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)This paper introduces a quasi-interpolation method for reconstruction of data sampled on the Body Centered Cubic (BCC) lattice. The reconstructions based on this quasi-interpolation achieve the optimal approximation order ... -
Scalable, Versatile and Simple Constrained Graph Layout
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)We describe a new technique for graph layout subject to constraints. Compared to previous techniques the proposed method is much faster and scalable to much larger graphs. For a graph with n nodes, m edges and c constraints ... -
SDViz: A Context-Preserving Interactive Visualization System for Technical Diagrams
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)When performing daily maintenance and repair tasks, technicians require access to a variety of technical diagrams. As technicians trace components and diagrams from page-to-page, within and across manuals, the contextual ... -
Selecting Good Views of High-dimensional Data using Class Consistency
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)Abstract Many visualization techniques involve mapping high-dimensional data spaces to lower-dimensional views. Unfortunately, mapping a high-dimensional data space into a scatterplot involves a loss of information; or, ... -
Semi-Automatic Time-Series Transfer Functions via Temporal Clustering and Sequencing
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)When creating transfer functions for time-varying data, it is not clear what range of values to use for classification, as data value ranges and distributions change over time. In order to generate time-varying transfer ... -
Smooth Stream Surfaces of Fourth Order Precision
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2009)We introduce a novel technique for the construction of smooth stream surfaces of 4th order precision. While common stream surface techniques use linear interpolation for generating seed points for new streamlines in the ...
