A note on space-filling visualizations and space-filling curves
10.1109/INFVIS.2005.1532145
A recent line of treemap research has focused on layout algorithms that optimize properties such as stability, preservation of ordering information, and aspect ratio of rectangles. No ideal treemap layout algorithm has been found, and so it is natural to explore layouts that produce nonrectangular regions. This note de...

A sky dome visualisation for identification of astronomical orientations
10.1109/INFVIS.2005.1532123
It has long been known that ancient temples were frequently oriented along the cardinal directions or to certain points along the horizon where Sun or Moon rise or set on special days of the year. In the last decades, archaeologists have found evidence of even older building structures buried in the soil, with doorways...

Adapting the cognitive walkthrough method to assess the usability of a knowledge domain visualization
10.1109/INFVIS.2005.1532147
The usability of knowledge domain visualization (KDViz) tools can be assessed at several levels. Cognitive walkthrough (CW) is a well known usability inspection method that focuses on how easily users can learn software through exploration. Typical applications of CW follow structured tasks where user goals and action ...

An evaluation of content browsing techniques for hierarchical space-filling visualizations
10.1109/INFVIS.2005.1532132
Space-filling visualizations, such as the TreeMap, are well suited for displaying the properties of nodes in hierarchies. To browse the contents of the hierarchy, the primary mode of interaction is by drilling down through many successive layers. In this paper we introduce a distortion algorithm based on fisheye and co...

An interactive 3D integration of parallel coordinates and star glyphs

Parallel coordinates are a powerful method for visualizing multidimensional data but, when applied to large data sets, they become cluttered and difficult to read. Star glyphs, on the other hand, can be used to display either the attributes of a data item or the values across all items for a single attribute. Star glyp...

In particular, we explore combinations of node link and treemap forms, to combine the space efficiency of treemaps with t...

Flow map layout

Cartographers have long used flow maps to show the movement of objects from one location to another, such as the number of people in a migration, the amount of goods being traded, or the number of packets in a network. The advantage of flow maps is that they reduce visual clutter by merging edges. Most flow maps are dr...

Visualizing hierarchical data is one of the core areas of information visualization. Most of these techniques focus on single hierarchies—hierarchies with a single root element and a single path to each element. In contrast, this work focuses on the browsing of multi-hierarchies—hierarchies with multiple roots or multi...

Non-manifold Mesh Extraction from Time-varying Segmented Volumes used for Modeling a Human Heart
10.2312/VisSym/EuroVis05/199-206
We present a new algorithm extracting and fairing surfaces from segmented volumes composed of multiple materials. In a first pass, the material boundaries in the volume are smoothed considering signed distance functions for the individual materials. Second, we apply a marching-cubes-like contouring method providing ini...
