    • Hierarchical Data Representations Based on Planar Voronoi Diagrams 

      Schussman, Shirley; Bertram, Martin; Hamann, Bernd; Joy, Kenneth I. (The Eurographics Association, 2000)
      Multiresolution representation of high-dimensional scattered data is a fundamental problem in scientific visualization. This paper introduces a data hierarchy of Voronoi diagrams as a versatile solution. Given an arbitrary ...
    • Drawing Relational Schemas 

      Battista, Giuseppe Di; Didimo, Walter; Patrignani, Maurizio; Pizzonia, Maurizio (The Eurographics Association, 2000)
      A wide number of practical applications would benefit from automatically generated graphical representations of relational schemas, in which tables are represented by boxes, and table attributes correspond to distinct ...
    • Dynamic Overview Techniques for Image Retrieval 

      Pu, Pearl; Pecenovic, Zoran (The Eurographics Association, 2000)
      One difficulty often overlooked in information retrieval systems is that search criteria themselves are often poorly defined. People describe their information needs in many different ways and frequently change their goals ...
    • Contextual Visualization of Actor Status in Social Networks 

      Brandes, Ulrik; Wagner, Dorothea (The Eurographics Association, 2000)
      We propose a novel information visualization approach for an analytical method applied in the social sciences. In social network analysis, social structures are formally represented as graphs, and structural properties of ...
    • Improving Angular Resolution in Visualizations of Geographic Networks 

      Brandes, Ulrik; Shubina, Galina; Tamassia, Roberto (The Eurographics Association, 2000)
      In visualizations of large-scale transportation and communications networks, node coordinates are usually fixed to preserve the underlying geography, while links are represented as geodesics for simplicity. This often leads ...
    • Squarified Treemaps 

      Bruls, Mark; Huizing, Kees; Wijk, Jarke J. van (The Eurographics Association, 2000)
      An extension to the treemap method for the visualization of hierarchical information, such as directory structures and organization structures, is presented. The standard treemap method often gives thin, elongated rectangles. ...
    • DAG Drawing from an Information Visualization Perspective 

      Melancon, G.; Herman, I. (The Eurographics Association, 2000)
      When dealing with a graph, any visualization strategy must rely on a layout procedure at least to initiate the process. Because the visualization process evolves within an interactive environment the choice of this layout ...
