Be the Data: Embodied Visual Analytics

Big Data Visual Analytics

Realizing embodied interaction for visual analytics through large displays

Visual analysts are engaged with the arduous task of scrutinizing increasingly larger datasets. Where conventional desktop displays are reaching their limits in terms of performance efficiency with large datasets, analysts can turn to larger displays. In a world of extensive multi-scale datasets, large high-resolution displays have the potential to show both more overview and detail for a given...

Visual Analytics for Biological Data

The preeminence of a systems approach in the biological and other life sciences creates enormous challenges for computational visualization techniques to enable researchers to gain insight from their large, highly complex, and multiple datasets. For this special issue, we sought contributions that suitably describe applications of visual analytics (VA) techniques to yield viable results that ar...

Visual Analytics of Dynamic Computer Network Data

This paper presents how visual analytic techniques can be used for analyzing netflow information and thereby finding network attacks. Network security is a field of increasing importance, but also of increasing complexity. Today networks grow and are common in any larger company. At the same time the attacks increase and sensible data is less secure than before. Systems are built for analyzing ...

Vistradas: Visual Analytics for Urban Trajectory Data

In the past few years a growing number of cities have started monitoring the position of public transportation vehicles using GPS devices. Most of these trajectory data are released in raw format and usually have issues, such as measurement errors. Providing insights from these valuable (and noisy) data is a major challenge in larger cities. In this paper we present a system, called Vistradas, ...
