      Image- and data-parallel rendering across multiple nodes on high-performance computing systems is widely used in visualization to provide higher frame rates, support large data sets, and render data in situ. Specifically ...

    • Segmentifier: Interactive Refinement of Clickstream Data 

      Dextras-Romagnino, Kimberly; Munzner, Tamara (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)
      Clickstream data has the potential to provide insights into e-commerce consumer behavior, but previous techniques fall short of handling the scale and complexity of real-world datasets because they require relatively clean ...

    • A Stable Graph Layout Algorithm for Processes 

      Mennens, Robin; Scheepens, Roeland; Westenberg, Michel (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)
      Process mining enables organizations to analyze data about their (business) processes. Visualization is key to gaining insight into these processes and the associated data. Process visualization requires a high-quality ...

    • SurgeryCuts: Embedding Additional Information in Maps without Occluding Features 

      Angelini, Marco; Buchmüller, Juri; Keim, Daniel A.; Meschenmoser, Philipp; Santucci, Giuseppe (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)
      Visualizing contextual information to a map often comes at the expense of overplotting issues. Especially for use cases with relevant map features in the immediate vicinity of an information to add, occlusion of the relevant ...

    • Topic Tomographies (TopTom): a Visual Approach to Distill Information From Media Streams 

      Gobbo, Beatrice; Balsamo, Duilio; Mauri, Michele; Bajardi, Paolo; Panisson, André; CIUCCARELLI, PAOLO (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)
      In this paper we present TopTom, a digital platform whose goal is to provide analytical and visual solutions for the exploration of a dynamic corpus of user-generated messages and media articles, with the aim of i) distilling ...

    • Toward Understanding Representation Methods in Visualization Recommendations through Scatterplot Construction Tasks 

      L'Yi, Sehi; Chang, Youli; Shin, DongHwa; Seo, Jinwook (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)
      Most visualization recommendation systems predominantly rely on graphical previews to describe alternative visual encodings. However, since InfoVis novices are not familiar with visual representations (e.g., interpretation ...

    • Towards Glyphs for Uncertain Symmetric Second-Order Tensors 

      Gerrits, Tim; Rössl, Christian; Theisel, Holger (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019)
      Measured data often incorporates some amount of uncertainty, which is generally modeled as a distribution of possible samples. In this paper, we consider second-order symmetric tensors with uncertainty. In the 3D case, ...
