      Trajectory-based visualization of coordinated movement data within a bounded area, such as player and ball movement within a soccer pitch, can easily result in visual crossings, overplotting, and clutter. Trajectory ...
    • Adaptable Radial Axes Plots for Improved Multivariate Data Visualization 

      Rubio-Sánchez, Manuel; Sanchez, Alberto; Lehmann, Dirk J. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Radial axes plots are multivariate visualization techniques that extend scatterplots in order to represent high-dimensional data as points on an observable display. Well-known methods include star coordinates or principal ...
    • Global Feature Tracking and Similarity Estimation in Time-Dependent Scalar Fields 

      Saikia, Himangshu; Weinkauf, Tino (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      We present an algorithm for tracking regions in time-dependent scalar fields that uses global knowledge from all time steps for determining the tracks. The regions are defined using merge trees, thereby representing a ...
    • An Empirical Study on the Reliability of Perceiving Correlation Indices using Scatterplots 

      Sher, Varshita; Bemis, Karen G.; Liccardi, Ilaria; Chen, Min (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Scatterplots have been in use for about two centuries, primarily for observing the relationship between two variables and commonly for supporting correlation analysis. In this paper, we report an empirical study that ...
    • Sclow Plots: Visualizing Empty Space 

      Giesen, Joachim; Kühne, Lars; Lucas, Philipp (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Scatter plots are mostly used for correlation analysis, but are also a useful tool for understanding the distribution of highdimensional point cloud data. An important characteristic of such distributions are clusters, and ...
    • Measuring Symmetry in Drawings of Graphs 

      Welch, Eric; Kobourov, Stephen (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Layout symmetry is an important and desired feature in graph drawing. While there is a substantial body of work in computer vision around the detection and measurement of symmetry in images, there has been little effort ...
    • Visual Verification of Cancer Staging for Therapy Decision Support 

      Cypko, Mario A.; Wojdziak, Jan; Stoehr, Matthaeus; Kirchner, Bettina; Preim, Bernhard; Dietz, Andreas; Lemke, Heinz U.; Oeltze-Jafra, Steffen (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      It is generally accepted practice that each cancer patient case should be discussed in a clinical expert meeting, the so-called tumor board. A central role in finding the best therapy options for patients with solid tumors ...
    • Finding a Clear Path: Structuring Strategies for Visualization Sequences 

      Hullman, Jessica; Kosara, Robert; Lam, Heidi (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2017)
      Little is known about how people structure sets of visualizations to support sequential viewing. We contribute findings from several studies examining visualization sequencing and reception. In our first study, people made ...
