AutoStyle: Automatic Style Transfer from Image Collections to Users' Images
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Stylizing photos, to give them an antique or artistic look, has become popular in recent years. The available stylization filters, however, are usually created manually by artists, resulting in a narrow set of choices. ... -
Bilinear Accelerated Filter Approximation
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Our method approximates exact texture filtering for arbitrary scales and translations of an image while taking into account the performance characteristics of modern GPUs. Our algorithm is fast because it accesses textures ... -
Vectorising Bitmaps into Semi-Transparent Gradient Layers
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)We present an interactive approach for decompositing bitmap drawings and studio photographs into opaque and semi-transparent vector layers. Semi-transparent layers are especially challenging to extract, since they require ... -
Color Me Noisy: Example-based Rendering of Hand-colored Animations with Temporal Noise Control
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)We present an example-based approach to rendering hand-colored animations which delivers visual richness comparable to real artwork while enabling control over the amount of perceived temporal noise. This is important both ... -
Preface and Table of Contents

Visual Analysis of Sets of Heterogeneous Matrices Using Projection-Based Distance Functions and Semantic Zoom
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Matrix visualization is an established technique in the analysis of relational data. It is applicable to large, dense networks, where node-link representations may not be effective. Recently, domains have emerged in which ... -
Visual Analysis of Time-Series Similarities for Anomaly Detection in Sensor Networks
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)We present a system to analyze time-series data in sensor networks. Our approach supports exploratory tasks for the comparison of univariate, geo-referenced sensor data, in particular for anomaly detection. We split the ... -
Papilio: Visualizing Android Application Permissions
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)We introduce Papilio, a new visualization technique for visualizing permissions of real-world Android applications. We explore the development of layouts that exploit the directed acyclic nature of Android application ... -
Semi-Automatic Editing of Graphs with Customized Layouts
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Usually visualization is applied to gain insight into data. Yet consuming the data in form of visual representation is not always enough. Instead, users need to edit the data, preferably through the same means used to ... -
Evaluating the Impact of User Characteristics and Different Layouts on an Interactive Visualization for Decision Making
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)There is increasing evidence that user characteristics can have a significant impact on visualization effectiveness, suggesting that visualizations could be designed to better fit each user's specific needs. Most studies ... -
Authoring Narrative Visualizations with Ellipsis
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Data visualization is now a popular medium for journalistic storytelling. However, current visualization tools either lack support for storytelling or require significant technical expertise. Informed by interviews with ... -
Lyra: An Interactive Visualization Design Environment
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)We present Lyra, an interactive environment for designing customized visualizations without writing code. Using drag-and-drop interactions, designers can bind data to the properties of graphical marks to author expressive ... -
SimilarityExplorer: A Visual Inter-Comparison Tool for Multifaceted Climate Data
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Inter-comparison and similarity analysis to gauge consensus among multiple simulation models is a critical visualization problem for understanding climate change patterns. Climate models, specifically, Terrestrial Biosphere ... -
LoVis: Local Pattern Visualization for Model Refinement
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Linear models are commonly used to identify trends in data. While it is an easy task to build linear models using pre-selected variables, it is challenging to select the best variables from a large number of alternatives. ... -
Sparse Representation and Visualization for Direct Numerical Simulation of Premixed Combustion
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Direct Numerical Simulations of premixed combustion produce terabytes of raw data, which are prohibitively large to be stored, and have to be analyzed and visualized. A simultaneous and integrated treatment of data storage, ... -
Glyphs for Exploring Crowd-sourced Subjective Survey Classification
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)The findings drawn from opinion survey responses are usually made by producing summary charts or conducting statistical analysis. Both involve data aggregation and filtering as exploring the unaggregated data has traditionally ... -
Visualizing Multidimensional Data with Glyph SPLOMs
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Scatterplot matrices or SPLOMs provide a feasible method of visualizing and representing multi-dimensional data especially for a small number of dimensions. For very high dimensional data, we introduce a novel technique ... -
Visual-interactive Exploration of Interesting Multivariate Relations in Mixed Research Data Sets
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)The analysis of research data plays a key role in data-driven areas of science. Varieties of mixed research data sets exist and scientists aim to derive or validate hypotheses to find undiscovered knowledge. Many analysis ... -
Many Plans: Multidimensional Ensembles for Visual Decision Support in Flood Management
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)Uncertainties in flood predictions complicate the planning of mitigation measures. There is a consensus that many possible incident scenarios should be considered. For each scenario, a specific response plan should be ... -
Visualizing Proximity-Based Spatiotemporal Behavior of Museum Visitors using Tangram Diagrams
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley and Sons Ltd., 2014)For museum curators it is imperative to learn, analyze, and understand the behavior patterns of the visitors in their museum. Recent developments in the field of indoor positioning systems make the acquisition and availability ...
