We present an extended version of targeted projection pursuit, a high dimensional data exploration tool adapted for producing graph layouts using node-attributes. Attributes are generated based on detected events in the intrusion detection system and firewall logs and how often they occur for each IP address. Edges are the directed links between source and destination IPs. The layout is interac...

The 1960s included the earliest discussion on an inductive approach towards the construction of a decision tree for the classification of objects that are described by attributes (Hunt, Marin, & Stone, 1966). It is not until over a decade later that the popularization of the decision tree method was materialized with the introduction of what developed into the Interactive Dichotomizer 3 (Quinla...

Utilizing context information—e.g. location, user aspects, or hardware capabilities—enables the presented generic framework to automatically control the selection and configuration of visualization techniques and therewith provide interactive illustrations, displayed on small mobile devices. For contextannotated data, provided by an underlying context-aware world model, the proposed system dete...

In this paper we consider graph drawing for the application of scenegraphs as encoded by VRML97/X3D. As these fileformats store the structure and attributes of scenes in a directed acyclic graph, the techniques for drawing rooted trees are suitable but require much drawing space. Therefore we devised a smart, interactive drawing, which uses a detailed view of the current point of interest and a...

We present a new interactive paradigm for iterative information retrieval based on the automatic construction of a faceted representation for a document subset. Facets are chosen heuristically based on lexical dispersion, a measure of the number of different terms with which a word co-occurs within noun phrases appearing in the document set. The phrases in which these terms occur serve to provi...

We introduce a framework for interactive visualization of global flow features in large unsteady 3D flow fields. It is based on selective visualization using dense precomputed integral lines (streamlines, path lines) linked together with all other data attributes. This way we are able to provide an uniform and interactive environment for custom feature specification and visualization of non-loc...

We have carried out a comparison of interactive search in a homogenous information retrieval domain using a keyword search engine on the one hand and a concept ontology system on the other. The experimental design was that of the TREC Interactive Track. While the results showed that keyword search was superior on this occasion, we have identified the ideal characteristics of an ontology and sho...

In this paper we consider how multidimensional clustering can be complemented by interactive visualization. We propose a link between geovisualization and data mining systems for supporting an iterative analysis cycle, including data pre-processing and visual exploration, automatic detection of clusters in multidimensional space of user-selected attributes, and visual analysis of cluster analys...

This paper describes the design and implementation of a virtual environment which provides an interactive visualisation of MIDI music data. ‘Benediktine Cyberspace’ and composite dimensions are discussed, along with a description of how visualisation techniques derived from them were used to overcome some of the difficulties associated with representing large numbers of data attributes simultan...

We present an interactive procedure to annotate a large-scale corpus of Modern Standard and Egyptian Arabic tweets for event modality that comprises obligation, permission, commitment, ability, and volition. The procedure splits up the annotation process into a series of simplified questions, dispenses with the requirement of expert linguistic knowledge, and captures nested modality triggers an...
