In any research project involving data-rich assays, exploratory data analysis is a crucial step. Typically, this involves jumping back and forth between visualizations that provide overview of the whole data and others that dive into details. In data quality assessment, for example, it might be very helpful to have one…

Emerging spatial transcriptomics technologies (e.g. Visium, Slideseq, or MERFISH) have made it possible to keep the spatial information while profiling gene expression of every cell/spatial-spot. Integrating expression values, spatial coordinates, and imaging data type promises to bring more biological insights but is…

Interactive Stratified Attribute Tracking (iSAT) is a visual analytics tool for cohort analysis. In this paper, we show how instructors can use iSAT to visualize transitions of groups of students during teaching-learning activities. Interactive visual analytics gives the instructor the affordance of understanding the…

In biological research analysis of large data sets, such as RNA-seq gene expression, often involves visualisation of thousands of data points and associated database query. Static charts produced by traditional tools lack the ability to reveal underlying information, and separated database query is laborious and…

'Andreas Vogelsang'] User Experience (UX) professionals need to be able to analyze large amounts of usage data on their own to make evidence-based design decisions. However, the design process for In-Vehicle Information Systems (IVISs) lacks data-driven support and effective tools for visualizing and analyzing user…

Computational metabolomics workflows have revolutionized the untargeted metabolomics field. However, the organization and prioritization of metabolite features remains a laborious process. Organizing metabolomics data is often done through mass fragmentation-based spectral similarity grouping, resulting in feature sets…

Syllabus is essentially a concise outline of a course of study, and conventionally a text document. In the past few decades, however, two novel variations of syllabus have emerged, namely "the Graphic Syllabus" and "the Interactive Syllabus". Each of these two variations of syllabus has its own special advantages. The…

'Timofey Bryksin'] The process of writing code and use of features in an integrated development environment (IDE) is a fruitful source of data in computing education research. Existing studies use records of students' actions in the IDE, consecutive code snapshots, compilation events, and others, to gain deep insight…

Social media activity on a research article is considered to be an altmetric, a new measure to estimate research impact. Demonstrating software on Twitter is a powerful way to attract attention from a larger audience. SNS integration of software can also lower the barriers to trying the tools and make it easier to save…

Task-specific tool mapping. The method begins by extracting a set of tools required for the user's task. Hidden or nested functions are surfaced to reduce learning barriers and interface complexity (C1). This is motivated by task-centric UI design principles [[50]] to manage interface complexity and reduce user…
