    • Natural Language Interfaces for Data Analysis with Visualization: Considering What Has and Could Be Asked 

      Srinivasan, Arjun; Stasko, John T. (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Natural language is emerging as a promising interaction paradigm for data analysis with visualization. Designing and implementing Natural Language Interfaces (NLIs) is a challenging task, however. In addition to being able ...
    • TexTile: A Pixel-Based Focus+Context Tool For Analyzing Variants Across Multiple Text Scales 

      Asokarajan, Bharathi; Etemadpour, Ronak; Abbas, June; Huskey, Sam; Weaver, Chris (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Before the advent of printed texts, text duplication was done primarily by hand. Errors, alterations, and erasures were common and varied widely across different copies of the same text. Classics scholars seek to reconstruct ...
    • Visualizing Large Time-series Data on Very Small Screens 

      Chen, Yang (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      In this paper, we present a space-efficient visualization and an interaction technique for exploring time-series data on very small screens. The visualization is based on a simultaneous display of contextual visualization ...
    • An Argument Structure for Data Stories 

      Kosara, Robert (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Many data stories in journalism do not have a story arc, but rather present facts without much structure. This mirrors the popular inverted pyramid style of writing that presents the most important information up front, ...
    • TypoTweet Maps: Characterizing Urban Areas through Typographic Social Media Visualization 

      Godwin, Alex; Wang, Yongxin; Stasko, John T. (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Analyzing the important events and news stories that have captured the public interest in a city can be useful for determining the topics that are vital to the people that live there. Social media data, such as tweets, ...
    • Nodes, Paths, and Edges: Using Mental Maps to Augment Crime Data Analysis in Urban Spaces 

      Godwin, Alex; Stasko, John T. (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Citizen participation can provide valuable insight into data that is not captured by official sources. In this paper, we propose a technique for using mental maps consisting of three fundamental elements: nodes, paths, and ...
    • MVN-Reduce: Dimensionality Reduction for the Visual Analysis of Multivariate Networks 

      Martins, Rafael M.; Kruiger, J. F.; Minghim, Rosane; Telea, Alexandru C.; Kerren, Andreas (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      The analysis of Multivariate Networks (MVNs) can be approached from two different perspectives: a multidimensional one, consisting of the nodes and their multiple attributes, or a relational one, consisting of the network's ...
    • Marching Pentatopes for Continuous Morphing of Isosurfaces From Four Dimensional Data in HTML5/WebGL 

      Watters, Aaron R. (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Animations which show three dimensional volumes continuously changing over time facilitate the exploration and analysis of complex data sets such as calcium image data of neural activity and phase contrast magnetic resonance ...
    • Scale-Adaptive Placement of Hierarchical Map Labels 

      Wu, Hsiang-Yun; Takahashi, Shigeo; Poon, Sheung-Hung; Arikawa, Masatoshi (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      Nowadays, digital map services provide a large amount of spatial data and thus facilitate users to dynamically navigate map contents across multiple scales on small mobile devices. In this context, consistently placing map ...
    • EuroVis 2017 - Short Papers: Frontmatter 

      Kozlikova, Barbora; Schreck, Tobias; Wischgoll, Thomas (Eurographics Association, 2017)
    • IN2CO - A Visualization Framework for Intuitive Collaboration 

      Rupprecht, Franca-Alexandra; Hamann, Bernd; Weidig, Christian; Aurich, Jan C.; Ebert, Achim (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      Today, the need for interaction and visualization techniques to fulfill user requirements for collaborative work is ever increasing. Current approaches do not suffice since they do not consider the simultaneous work of ...
    • Analytic Behavior and Trust Building in Visual Analytics 

      Sacha, Dominik; Boesecke, Ina; Fuchs, Johannes; Keim, Daniel A. (The Eurographics Association, 2016)
      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)
