Automated Responsive Thematic Mapping with Layout Guides
Arjen Simons, Sarah Schöttler, Wouter Meulemans +2
Thematic maps visually communicate statistical information about spatial units such as countries or states. They must balance the individual readability of those map elements that…
Unfolding Ordered Matrices into BioFabric Motifs
Jules Wulms, Wouter Meulemans, Bettina Speckmann
BioFabrics were introduced by Longabaugh in 2012 as a way to draw large graphs in a clear and uncluttered manner. The visual quality of BioFabrics crucially depends on the order of…
Noisy Graph Patterns via Ordered Matrices
Jules Wulms, Wouter Meulemans, Bettina Speckmann
The high-level structure of a graph is a crucial ingredient for the analysis and visualization of relational data. However, discovering the salient graph patterns that form this st…
BlockSets: A Structured Visualization for Sets with Large Elements
Neda Novakova, Veselin Todorov, Steven van den Broek +2
Visualizations of set systems frequently use enclosing geometries for the sets in combination with reduced representations of the elements, such as short text labels, small glyphs,…
Summarizing Classed Region Maps with a Disk Choreme
Steven van den Broek, Wouter Meulemans, Andreas Reimer +1
Chorematic diagrams are highly reduced schematic maps of geospatial data and processes. They can visually summarize complex situations using only a few simple shapes (choremes) pla…
Optimizing Symbol Visibility through Displacement
Bernd Gärtner, Vishwas Kalani, Meghana M. Reddy +3
In information visualization, the position of symbols often encodes associated data values. When visualizing data elements with both a numerical and a categorical dimension, positi…
