What is Visualization for Communication? Analyzing Four Years of VisComm Papers Open
With the introduction of the Visualization for Communication workshop (VisComm) at IEEE VIS and in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been renewed interest in studying visualization as a medium of communication. However the characte…

Inferential Tasks as an Evaluation Technique for Visualization Open
Designing suitable tasks for visualization evaluation remains challenging. Traditional evaluation techniques commonly rely on 'low-level' or 'open-ended' tasks to assess the efficacy of a proposed visualization, however, nontrivial trade-o…

A Grammar of Hypotheses for Visualization, Data, and Analysis Open
We present a grammar for expressing hypotheses in visual data analysis to formalize the previously abstract notion of "analysis tasks." Through the lens of our grammar, we lay the groundwork for how a user's data analysis questions can be …

Does Interaction Improve Bayesian Reasoning with Visualization? Open
Interaction enables users to effectively navigate large amounts of data, supports cognitive processing, and increases methods of data representation. However, beyond popular beliefs, there have been few attempts to empirically demonstrate …

Do androids dream of electric sorghum?: Predicting Phenotypes from Multi-Scale Genomic and Environmental Data using Neural Networks and Knowledge Graphs Open
The interplay between an organism's genes, its environment, and the expressed phenotype is dynamic. These interactions within ecosystems are shaped by non-linear multi-scale effects that are difficult to disentangle into discrete component…

At a Glance: Pixel Approximate Entropy as a Measure of Line Chart Complexity Open
When inspecting information visualizations under time critical settings, such as emergency response or monitoring the heart rate in a surgery room, the user only has a small amount of time to view the visualization "at a glance". In these …
