Traditionally, vision science and information/data visualization have interacted by using knowledge of human vision to help design effective displays. It is argued here, however, that this interaction can also go in the opposite direction: the investigation of successful visualizations can lead to the discovery of…

We propose a new visualization method for massive supercomputer simulations. The key idea is to scatter multiple omnidirectional cameras to record the simulation via in situ visualization. After the simulations are complete, researchers can interactively explore the data collection of the recorded videos by navigating…

This article consists of a conceptual analysis-from the perspective of communication sciences-of the relevant aspects that should be considered during operational steps in data visualization. The analysis is performed taking as a reference the components that integrate the communication framework theory-the message…

The intersection between mental maps and visualization has attracted increasing research attention in recent years, as they exhibit a natural functional complementarity. Mental maps research explores how humans construct in-mind representations of the external world through the view of cognitive science, while…

In the modern environment, visual communication design has become a comprehensive subject that combines technology and art. The development of various technologies has promoted the emergence of new design art forms, and at the same time, it has also promoted the change of design concepts and thinking modes. Visual…

With the availability of big data for food safety, more and more advanced data analysis methods are being applied to risk analysis and prewarning (RAPW). Visual analytics, which has emerged in recent years, integrates human and machine intelligence into the data analysis process in a visually interactive manner…

Communicating scientific ideas to policy actors is a longstanding challenge, especially in epidemiological modeling where evidence is inherently uncertain. Central to this communication is visualization-the graphic representation of complex epidemiological modeling concepts through figures, plots, and charts. Effective…

'Brij B. Gupta' 'Guangtao Zhai' 'Alicia García-Holgado'] Currently, the methods and means of human-machine interaction and visualization as its integral part are being increasingly developed. In various fields of scientific knowledge and technology, there is a need to find and select the most effective visualization…

Rhetoric is the study of the communication techniques used to inform, persuade, or motivate a given audience in a particular situation, modifying their conceptions and attitudes toward the object of communication. Visual rhetoric (as an artifact) is the purposeful production or arrangement of colors, forms, and other…

Spatial planning and development use various visualisation methods. Technological advancements in visualisation techniques have allowed imaging to shift from 2 to 3D dimensions. 3D optical illusion, which converts information recorded in the digital form into a three-dimensional presentation, can be a new tool for…

Spatial selections are a ubiquitous concept in visualization. By localizing particular features, they can be analysed and compared in different views. However, the semantics of such selections often depend on specific parameter settings and it can be difficult to reconstruct them without additional information. In this…

In this paper we present a laboratory experiment in which 157 secondary-school students learned the concept of function with either static representations or dynamic visualizations. We used two different versions of dynamic visualization in order to evaluate whether interactivity had an impact on learning outcome. In…

We are able to extract detailed information from mental images that we were not explicitly aware of during encoding. For example, we can discover a new figure when we rotate a previously seen image in our mind. However, such discoveries are not “really” new but just new “interpretations.” In two recent publications, we…

Vision Science is an area of study that focuses on specific aspects of visual perception and is conducted mainly in the restricted and controlled context of laboratories. In so doing, the methodological procedures adopted necessarily reduce the variables of natural perception. For the time being, it is extremely…

What is fundamental in vision has been discussed for millennia. For philosophical realists and the physiological approach to vision, the objects of the outer world are truly given, and failures to perceive objects properly, such as in illusions, are just sporadic misperceptions. The goal is to replace the subjectivity…

Although a visual illusion is often viewed as an amusing trick, for the vision scientist it is a question that demands an answer, which leads to even more questioning. All researchers hold their own chain of questions, the links of which depend on the very theory they adhere to. Perceptual theories are devoted to…
