Melange: Space Folding for Visual Exploration
نویسندگان
چکیده
Navigating in large geometric spaces-such as maps, social networks, or long documents-typically requires a sequence of pan and zoom actions. However, this strategy is often ineffective and cumbersome, especially when trying to study and compare several distant objects. We propose a new distortion technique that folds the intervening space to guarantee visibility of multiple focus regions. The folds themselves show contextual information and support unfolding and paging interactions. We conducted a study comparing the space-folding technique to existing approaches and found that participants performed significantly better with the new technique. We also describe how to implement this distortion technique and give an in-depth case study on how to apply it to the visualization of large-scale 1D time-series data.

Determine folding mechanism of Lali structure, northern Dezful, Zagros, Iran
Lali sub-surface structure, with a NW-SE Zagros trending is located in Dezful Embayment. To determine the folding mechanism, structural geometric parameters including limbs dip, amplitude, wavelength, and crestal length were determined in four stages during deformation. In order to investigate the lateral folding mechanism, these geometric parameters were analyzed in three parts in the Lal...

One of the most common procedures for exporting and warehousing handmade carpets is keeping them folded over one another. Handmade carpets come out of their stable states by being folded,while increasing storage time can cause serious and sometimes irreversible changes to them. In this research, a pilot model carpet has kept folded under a load equal to 50 g/cm2 and then the applied load increa...
متن کاملExtensive exploration of conformational space improves Rosetta results for short protein domains.
With some simplifications, computational protein folding can be understood as an optimization problem of a potential energy function on a variable space consisting of all conformation for a given protein molecule. It is well known that realistic energy potentials are very "rough" functions, when expressed in the standard variables, and the folding trajectories can be easily trapped in multiple ...
متن کاملCell dynamics of folding in two-dimensional model proteins.
BACKGROUND Functionally useful proteins are sequences of amino acids that fold rapidly under appropriate conditions into their native states. It is believed that rapid folders are sequences for which the folding dynamics entail the exploration of restricted conformations-the phase space can be thought of as a folding funnel. While there are many experimentally accessible predictions pertaining ...
