Rule-based Visual Mappings - with a Case Study on Poetry Visualization
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)In this paper, we present a user-centered design study on poetry visualization. We develop a rule-based solution to address the conflicting needs for maintaining the flexibility of visualizing a large set of poetic variables ... -
Visualizing Motional Correlations in Molecular Dynamics using Geometric Deformations
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)In macromolecules, an allosteric effect is said to occur when a change at one site of a molecule affects a distant site. Understanding these allosteric effects can be important for understanding how the functions of complex ... -
Evaluating Isosurfaces with Level-set-based Information Maps
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)While isosurfaces have been widely used for scalar data visualization, it is often difficult to determine if the selected isosurfaces for visualization are sufficient to represent the entire scalar field. In this paper, ... -
Constructing Isosurfaces with Sharp Edges and Corners using Cube Merging
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)A number of papers present algorithms to construct isosurfaces with sharp edges and corners from hermite data, i.e. the exact surface normals at the exact intersection of the surface and grid edges. We discuss some fundamental ... -
Maximum Entropy Summary Trees
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Given a very large, node-weighted, rooted tree on, say, n nodes, if one has only enough space to display a knode summary of the tree, what is the most informative way to draw the tree? We define a type of weighted tree ... -

Continuous Representation of Projected Attribute Spaces of Multifields over Any Spatial Sampling
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)For the visual analysis of multidimensional data, dimension reduction methods are commonly used to project to a lower-dimensional visual space. In the context of multifields, i.e., volume data with a multidimensional ... -
Visualizing Interchange Patterns in Massive Movement Data
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Massive amount of movement data, such as daily trips made by millions of passengers in a city, are widely available nowadays. They are a highly valuable means not only for unveiling human mobility patterns, but also for ... -
Streamlines for Illustrative Real-Time Rendering
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Line drawing techniques are important methods to illustrate shapes. Existing feature line methods, e.g., suggestive contours, apparent ridges, or photic extremum lines, solely determine salient regions and illustrate them ... -
User-driven Feature Space Transformation
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Interactive visualization systems for exploring and manipulating high-dimensional feature spaces have experienced a substantial progress in the last few years. State-of-art methods rely on solid mathematical and computational ... -
Spatially Efficient Design of Annotated Metro Maps
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Annotating metro maps with thumbnail photographs is a commonly used technique for guiding travelers. However, conventional methods usually suffer from small labeling space around the metro stations, especially when they ... -
AOI Rivers for Visualizing Dynamic Eye Gaze Frequencies
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)It is difficult to explore and analyze eye gaze trajectories for commonly applied visual task solution strategies because such data shows complex spatio-temporal structure. In particular, the traditional eye gaze plots of ... -
Vector Field k-Means: Clustering Trajectories by Fitting Multiple Vector Fields
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Scientists study trajectory data to understand trends in movement patterns, such as human mobility for traffic analysis and urban planning. In this paper, we introduce a novel trajectory clustering technique whose central ... -
Small Multiples, Large Singles: A New Approach for Visual Data Exploration
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)We present a novel visual exploration method based on small multiples and large singles for effective and efficient data analysis. Users are enabled to explore the state space by offering multiple alternatives from the ... -
Visualizing Robustness of Critical Points for 2D Time-Varying Vector Fields
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Analyzing critical points and their temporal evolutions plays a crucial role in understanding the behavior of vector fields. A key challenge is to quantify the stability of critical points: more stable points may represent ... -
Complexity Plots
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)In this paper, we present a novel visualization technique for assisting the observation and analysis of algorithmic complexity. In comparison with conventional line graphs, this new technique is not sensitive to the units ... -
An Interactive Analysis and Exploration Tool for Epigenomic Data
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)In this design study, we present an analysis and abstraction of the data and tasks related to the domain of epigenomics, and the design and implementation of an interactive tool to facilitate data analysis and visualization ... -
Towards High-dimensional Data Analysis in Air Quality Research
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Analysis of chemical constituents from mass spectrometry of aerosols involves non-negative matrix factorization, an approximation of high-dimensional data in lower-dimensional space. The associated optimization problem is ... -
HiFiVE: A Hilbert Space Embedding of Fiber Variability Estimates for Uncertainty Modeling and Visualization
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Obtaining reproducible fiber direction estimates from diffusion MRI is crucial for successful fiber tracking. Modeling and visualizing the probability distribution of the inferred fiber directions is an important step in ... -
Visualizing Large-scale Parallel Communication Traces Using a Particle Animation Technique
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)Large-scale scientific simulations require execution on parallel computing systems in order to yield useful results in a reasonable time frame. But parallel execution adds communication overhead. The impact that this ...
