Finite-Time Mass Separation for Comparative Visualizations of Inertial Particles

The visual analysis of flows with inertial particle trajectories is a challenging problem because time-dependent particle trajectories additionally depend on mass, which gives rise to an infinite number of possible trajectories passing... Read more »

Visual Exploration of High-Dimensional Data through Subspace Analysis and Dynamic Projections

We introduce a novel interactive framework for visualizing and exploring high-dimensional datasets based on subspace analysis and dynamic projections. We assume the high-dimensional dataset can be represented by a mixture of low-dimensional... Read more »

Quantitative Measures for Cartogram Generation Techniques

Cartograms are used to visualize geographically distributed data by scaling the regions of a map (e.g., US states) such that their areas are proportional to some data associated with them (e.g., population).... Read more »

Feature-Driven Visual Analytics of Chaotic Parameter-Dependent Movement

Analyzing movements in their spatial and temporal context is a complex task. We are additionally interested in understanding the movements’ dependency on parameters that govern the processes behind the movement. We propose... Read more »

Rationale Visualization for Safety and Security

In safety and security domains where objects of interest (OOI), such as people, vessels, or transactions, are continuously monitored, automated reasoning is required due to their sheer number and volume of information.... Read more »

Adaptive Recommendations for Enhanced Non-linear Exploration of Annotated 3D Objects

We introduce a novel approach for letting casual viewers explore detailed 3D models integrated with structured spatially associated descriptive information organized in a graph. Each node associates a subset of the 3D... Read more »

Mosaic Drawings and Cartograms

Cartograms visualize quantitative data about a set of regions such as countries or states. There are several different types of cartograms and – for some – algorithms to automatically construct them exist.... Read more »

Visualization of Object-Centered Vulnerability to Possible Flood Hazards

As flood events tend to happen more frequently, there is a growing demand for understanding the vulnerability of infrastructure to flood-related hazards. Such demand exists both for flood management personnel and the... Read more »

Evaluating 2D Flow Visualization Using Eye Tracking

Flow visualization is recognized as an essential tool for many scientific research fields and different visualization approaches are proposed. Several studies are also conducted to evaluate their effectiveness but these studies rarely... Read more »

Visualnostics: Visual Guidance Pictograms for Analyzing Projections of High-dimensional Data

The visual analysis of multivariate projections is a challenging task, because complex visual structures occur. This causes fatigue or misinterpretations, which distorts the analysis. In fact, the same projection can lead to... Read more »
