Insight into Data through Visualization
نویسنده
چکیده
Computer graphics, scientific visualization, information visualization, and graph drawing are areas which deal with visual information layout. They all use the remarkable properties of the human visual perception to rapidly absorb and analyse visual information. The paper discusses important visualization aspects and gives examples of how visualization techniques facilitate insight into data characteristics. The connection between visualization and graph drawing is shortly discussed.

متن کاملUsing Provenance to Streamline Data Exploration through Visualization
Scientists are faced with increasingly larger volumes of data to analyze. To analyze and validate various hypotheses, they need to create insightful visual representations of both observed data and simulated processes. Often, insight comes from comparing multiple visualizations. But data exploration through visualization requires scientists to assemble complex workflows—pipelines consisting of ...
