TandemTable: Supporting Conversations and Language Learning Using a Multi-Touch Digital Table
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2015-06-03)
We present TandemTable, a multi-touch tabletop system designed to break down communication barriers between partners, with a special focus on supporting those who are learning languages. The design was guided by a grounding ...
Lexichrome: Text Construction and Lexical Discovery with Word-Color Associations Using Interactive Visualization
(ACM, 2020-07-03)
Based on word-color associations from a comprehensive, crowdsourced lexicon, we present Lexichrome: a web application that explores the popular perception of relationships between English words and eleven basic color terms ...
Exploring Entities in Text with Descriptive Non-photorealistic Rendering
(IEEE, 2013-03)
We present a novel approach to text visualization called descriptive non-photorealistic rendering which exploits the inherent spatial and abstract dimensions in text documents to integrate 3D non-photorealistic rendering ...
Visualization and the Digital Humanities: Moving Toward Stronger Collaborations
(IEEE, 2018-12-01)
For the past two years, researchers from the visualization community and the digital humanities have come together at the IEEE VIS conference to discuss how both disciplines can work together to push research goals in their ...
Textension: Digitally Augmenting Document Spaces in Analog Texts
(DHQ, 2019)
In this paper, we present a system that automatically adds visualizations and natural language processing applications to analog texts, using any web-based device with a camera. After taking a picture of a particular page ...
Critical InfoVis: Exploring the Politics of Visualization
(ACM, 2013-04-27)
As information visualization is increasingly used to raise awareness about social issues, difficult questions arise about the power of visualization. So far the research community has not given sufficient thought to how ...
Approaching Humanities Questions Using Slow Visual Search Interfaces
(2021-06-01)
In this paper we discuss a visual search system that was designed and implemented for humanities scholars to ask questions of large document corpora. The system allows searches to be specified through traditional search, ...
Perceptual Biases in Font Size as a Data Encoding
(IEEE, 2017-07-04)
Many visualizations, including word clouds, cartographic labels, and word trees, encode data within the sizes of fonts. While font size can be an intuitive dimension for the viewer, using it as an encoding can introduce ...
Saliency Deficit and Motion Outlier Detection in Animated Scatterplots
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2019-05-04)
We report the results of a crowdsourced experiment that measured the accuracy of motion outlier detection in multivariate, animated scatterplots. The targets were outliers either in speed or direction of motion, and were ...
Tied In Knots: A Case Study on Anthropographic Data Visualization About Sexual Harassment in the Academy
(IEEE, 2020-10-30)
With this pictorial we present the design process of “The Academia is Tied in Knots”, an interactive visualization based on sensitive and qualitative data, namely personal stories reported by people who have experienced ...
