      Visual Analytics (VA) is a collaborative process between human and computer, where analysts are performing numerous interactions and reasoning activities. This paper presents our current progress in developing a note taking ...

    • CompaRing: Reducing Costs of Visual Comparison 

      Tominski, Christian (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Comparison is a frequent task when analyzing data. In visualization, comparison tasks are naturally carried out based on a visual representation of the data. Visual comparison allows us to gain insight where plain computations ...

    • Clarifying Hypotheses by Sketching Data 

      Marasoiu, Mariana; Blackwell, Alan F.; Sarkar, Advait; Spott, Martin (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Discussions between data analysts and colleagues or clients with no statistical background are difficult, as the analyst often has to teach and explain their statistical and domain knowledge. We investigate work practices ...

    • Spiral Theme Plot 

      Jiang, Shenghui; Fang, Shiaofen; Grannis, Shaun (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We introduce a new visualization method for temporal data, Spiral Theme Plot, by combining ThemeRiver method, spiral patterns, and scatter plot technique. Similar to ThemeRiver, data in different categories (themes) are ...

    • Cavity and Pore Segmentation in 3D Images with Ambient Occlusion 

      Baum, Daniel; Titschack, Jürgen (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Many natural objects contain pores and cavities that are filled with the same material that also surrounds the object. When such objects are imaged using, for example, computed tomography, the pores and cavities cannot be ...

    • Classic Techniques in New Domains: An Alternative Recipe 

      Monroe, Megan (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      In this paper, we adapt the classic technique of depicting a process as a structured workflow to suit the standard recipe. Cooking can be thought of as a small data, big user task. A single recipe encompasses only a small ...

    • Using Icicle Trees to Encode the Hierarchical Structure of Source Code 

      Bacher, Ivan; Namee, Brian Mac; Kelleher, John D. (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      This paper presents a study which evaluates the use of a tree visualisation (icicle tree) to encode the hierarchical structure of source code. The tree visualisation was combined with a source code editor in order to ...

    • Visualization of Publication Impact 

      Maguire, Eamonn; Montull, Javier Martin; Louppe, Gilles (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Measuring scholarly impact has been a topic of much interest in recent years. While many use the citation count as a primary indicator of a publications impact, the quality and impact of those citations will vary. Additionally, ...

    • Judgment Error in Pie Chart Variations 

      Kosara, Robert; Skau, Drew (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Pie charts and their variants are prevalent in business settings and many other uses, even if they are not popular with the academic community. In a recent study, we found that contrary to general belief, there is no clear ...

    • Interactive Web-based Visualization for Accessibility Mapping of Transportation Networks 

      Schoedon, Alexander; Trapp, Matthias; Hollburg, Henning; Döllner, Jürgen (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Accessibility is a fundamental aspect in transportation, routing, and spare-time activity planning concerning traveling in modern cities. In this context, interactive web-based accessibility-map visualization techniques ...

    • Manifold Visualization via Short Walks 

      Zhao, Yang; Tasoulis, Sotirios; Roos, Teemu (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Visualizing low-dimensional non-linear manifolds underlying high-dimensional data is a challenging data analysis problem. Different manifold visualization methods can be characterized by the associated definitions of ...

    • Space Bundling for Continuous Parallel Coordinates 

      Palmas, Gregorio; Weinkauf, Tino (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Continuous Parallel Coordinates (CPC) are a visualization technique used to perform multivariate analysis of different scalar fields defined on the same domain. While classic Parallel Coordinates draws a line for each ...

    • SpaceCuts: Making Room for Visualizations on Maps 

      Buchmüller, Juri; Jäckle, Dominik; Stoffel, Florian; Keim, Daniel A. (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Visual map features like streets, rail tracks, or rivers do not provide enough space to visualize multiple attributes on them. Related approaches to solve space issues distort the map with lenses, apply distortion techniques ...

    • Towards Visual Mega-Analysis of Voxel-based Measurement in Brain Cohorts 

      Zhang, Guohao; Kochunov, Peter; Hong, Elliot; Carr, Hamish; Chen, Jian (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      We present a visualization prototype for comparative analysis of factional anisotropy (FA) distributions constructed from threedimensional (3D) brain diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in brain cohorts. The prototype lets brain ...
