We present an approach developed in course of the VAST 2017 Mini-Challenge 2. To help the ornithologist Mitch to investigate the noxious gases emitted by the four companies south of the nature preserve, we employ a combination of interactive visualizations that allow for an exploration of the data. In this paper, we present our visual-interactive approach for analyzing suspicious patterns in the data. By taking the wind data into consideration, as well, our approach allows the retrieval of patterns in the chemical releases and identify key polluters.

analysis and exploration of similar continuous data for various air-sampler sensor have been performed by developing a processing tool. The analysis and design for characterizing sensor data have been stated and described. Continuous 24X7 sensor data and metrological data leads the layout choices for the analytical design. Such design choices are helpful to understand the pattern of similar reading for various devices at a time. In this paper, we describe the use of the mentioned design choices for to identify pattern, unusual behavior. We used this tool and design choice to solve VAST 2017 mini challenge 2.

2D Confocal Raman Microscopy (CRM) data consist of high dimensional per-pixel spectral data of 1000 bands and allows for complex spectral and spatial-spectral analysis tasks, i.e., in material discrimination, material thickness, and spatial material distributions. Currently, simple integral methods are commonly applied as visualanalysis solutions to CRM data which exhibit restricted discrimination power in various regards. In this paper we present a novel approach for the visualanalysis of 2D multispectral CRM data using multi-variate visualization techniques. Due to the large amount of data and the demand of an explorative approach without a-priori restriction, our system allows for arbitrary interactive (de)selection of varaibles w/o limitation and an unrestricted online definition/construction of new, combined properties. Our approach integrates CRM specific quantitative measures and handles material-related features for mixed materials in a quantitative manner. Technically, we realize the online definition/construction of new, combined properties as semi-automatic, cascaded, 1D and 2D multidimensional transfer functions (MD-TFs). By interactively incorporating new (raw or derived) properties, the dimensionality of the MD-TF space grows during the exploration procedure and is virtually unlimited. The final visualization is achieved by an enhanced color mixing step which improves saturation and contrast.

Aiming at the actual needs of efficient and convenient visualanalysis of near-Earth space explorationdata, this paper studies the functional realization mode, data flow and interactive method, analyzes the functional framework and data flow of the interactive visualization system of near-Earth space explorationdata in detail, designs a multi-level, loosely coupled and easily extensible system architecture, and focuses on solving the logic model design, the fusion rendering of the multivariable data, the shadow calculation, the data clustering analysis, and other key technologies. The application of the system has realized the interactive and visualanalysis of the massive and multi-source near-Earth space explorationdata, and provided convenient dataanalysis service for the vast number of scientific research and application users, which helps to better play the potential value of near-Earth space explorationdata.

Social media has become a fruitful platform on which to study human behavior and social phenomena. However, social media data are usually messy, disorganized, and noisy, which makes finding patterns in such data a challenging task. visualization can help with the exploration of such massive data. Researchers studying social media often begin by reviewing related research. In this paper, we consider the idea that information from related research can be incorporated into social media visualization tools in order to spark creativity and guide exploration. To develop an effective overview of social media research with which to seed our tool, we conducted a content analysis of social media related papers and designed SparQs, a visual analytics tool to spark creativity in social media exploration. We conducted a pilot evaluation with three social media researchers as well as a participatory design workshop to explore further directions.

visualization is a powerful technique for analysis and communication of complex, multidimensional, and time-varying data. However, it can be difficult to manually synthesize a coherent narrative in a chart or graph due to the quantity of visualized attributes, a variety of salient features, and the awareness required to interpret points of interest (POs). We present Temporal Summary Images (TSIs) as an approach for both exploring this data and creating stories from it. As a visualization, a TSI is composed of three common components: (1) a temporal layout, (2) comic strip-style data snapshots, and (3) textual annotations. To augment user analysis and exploration, we have developed a number of interactive techniques that recommend relevant data features and design choices, including an automatic annotations workflow. As the analysis and visual design processes converge, the resultant image becomes appropriate for data storytelling. For validation, we use a prototype implementation for TSIs to conduct two case studies with large-scale, scientific simulation datasets.

Both interactive visualization and computational analysis methods are useful for data studies and an integration of both approaches is promising to successfully combine the benefits of both methodologies. In interactive dataexploration and analysis workflows, we need successful means to quantitatively externalize results from data studies, amounting to a particular challenge for the usually qualitative visualdataanalysis. In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach in order to quantitatively externalize valuable findings from interactive visualdataexploration and analysis, based on local linear regression models. The models are built on user-selected subsets of the data, and we provide a way of keeping track of these models and comparing them. As an additional benefit, we also provide the user with the numeric model coefficients. Once the models are available, they can be used in subsequent steps of the workflow. A model-based optimization can then be performed, for example, or more complex models can be reconstructed using an inversion of the local models. We study two datasets to exemplify the proposed approach, a meteorological data set for illustration purposes and a simulation ensemble from the automotive industry as an actual case study.

dataScope is a web-based tool for generating interactive visual dashboards on large scale multidimensional datasets. Users create these dashboards using a high-level declarative grammar, and use them to explore data and create cohorts for downstream analysis. We describe dataScope's architecture, design considerations and provide an overview of the system. We highlight some of dataScope's features that were useful in the case studies using datasets from cancer registries and co-clinical trials. In benchmarks dataScope is able to perform sub-second queries on data sizes ranging from thousand to million records.

Cross-sectional phenotype studies are used by genetics researchers to better understand how phenotypes vary across patients with genetic diseases, both within and between cohorts. Analyses within cohorts identify patterns between phenotypes and patients (e. g., co-occurrence) and isolate special cases (e. g., potential outliers). Comparing the variation of phenotypes between two cohorts can help distinguish how different factors affect disease manifestation (e. g., causal genes, age of onset, etc.). PhenoStacks is a novel visual analytics tool that supports the exploration of phenotype variation within and between cross-sectional patient cohorts. By leveraging the semantic hierarchy of the Human Phenotype Ontology, phenotypes are presented in context, can be grouped and clustered, and are summarized via overviews to support the exploration of phenotype distributions. The design of PhenoStacks was motivated by formative interviews with genetics researchers: we distil high-level tasks, present an algorithm for simplifying ontology topologies for visualization, and report the results of a deployment evaluation with four expert genetics researchers. The results suggest that PhenoStacks can help identify phenotype patterns, investigate data quality issues, and inform data collection design.
