Data, Information, Knowledge
  • Data thing a fundamental, indivisible thing in
    databases and data sets.
  • Can be represented naturally by populations and
    labels.
  • Associations between things.
  • If an association can be described by a succinct,
    computable rule it is called an explicit
    association.
  • If an association can not be described by a
    succinct, computable rule it is called an
    implicit association.
  • An information thing is an implicit association
    between the data things.
  • A knowledge thing is an explicit association
    between the data things or information things.

Data, Information, Knowledge
  • Data raw, uninterpreted facts
  • Tom, 20 years old, student, turner
  • Information relates items of Data
  • Tom is 20 years old
  • Knowledge relates items of Information
  • Tom is 20 years old ? Tom pays gt 1, 500
    Insurance
  • Modeling the world (Generalise)
  • 18 - 25 years old ? P (accident) high

Information visualization the use of
interactive visual representations of abstract,
non-physically based data to amplify cognition

Data Tables
  • Relational descriptions of data extended to
    include metadata

Analogy to database Variable -gt attribute Case
-gt tuple or record
17
Data Tables (2)
  • Variable Types
  • N Nominal
  • Unordered set
  • O Ordinal
  • Ordered set
  • Q Quantitative
  • Numeric range
  • Metadata
  • Structure

18
Data Transformations
  • Values ? Derived Values
  • Structure ? Derived Structure
  • Values ? Derived Structure
  • Structure ? Derived Values
  • Examples?

19
Visual Structures
  • Data Tables are mapped to Visual Structures
  • Expressive, effective
  • Perceptionand the human eye

20
Why do we need visual structures?
Maps, diagrams, and PERT charts are examples of
using visual representations to see things. A
good picture is worth ten thousand words.
Today, computers help people to see and
understand abstract data through pictures.
21
Visual Presentations of data
None-relational data Relational data
An example of using SeeNet to view email data
volumes generated by ATT long distance network
traffic. Edges represent email connections. Weigh
and colors of edges represent volumes of email
data.
The little image dots represent data records of
the number of sun spots, from 1850 to 1993,
zoomed in on a small area. (collected from GVU
Center, Georgia I. T.)
22
Visual Structures (2)
  • Spatial substrates
  • Marks
  • Graphical properties

23
Spatial Substrate
  • Space is the container unto which other parts of
    Visual Structure are poured.
  • Composition
  • Alignment
  • Folding
  • Recursion
  • Overloading

24
Marks
  • Points
  • Lines
  • Areas
  • Volumes
  • Graphs and Trees to show relations or links
    among objects

25
Graph-Driven Visualization of Relational Data
Graph Visualization
An example of graph visualization. This is the
visualization of a family tree (graph). Here each
image node represents a person and the edges
represent relationships among these people in a
large family.
26
Retinal Properties
  • Type of graphical property
  • Position/Size
  • Gray Scale
  • Orientation
  • Color
  • Texture
  • Shape

27
Other Graphical Properties
  • Crispness
  • Resolution
  • Transparency
  • Arrangement
  • Color value, hue, saturation
  • Table 1.22
  • Finally, temporal encoding for visual structures

28
Attributed Visualization
Visualization of collaborative workspace
29
View Transformations
  • Interactively modify and augment Visual
    Structures
  • Location Probes
  • Viewpoint Controls
  • Zoom, pan, clip
  • Overview an detail
  • Distortions
  • To perceive larger Visual Structure via distortion

30
Human Interaction and Transformation
  • Direct Manipulation
  • Controlling Mappings

31
Application1Visual Web browser
  • WebOFDAV - mapping the entire Web,
  • Look at the whole of WWW as one graph a huge and
    partially unknown graph.
  • Maintain and display a subset of this huge graph
    incrementally.
  • Reduce mouse-click rate
  • Maintain a 2D map history of navigation

32
The lost in hyperspace problem
  • Even in this small document, which could be read
    in one hour, users experienced the lost in
    hyperspace phenomenon as exemplified by the
    following user comment I soon realized that if
    I did not read something when I stumbled across
    it, then I would not be able to find it later.
    Of the respondents, 56 agreed fully or partly
    with the statement, When reading the report, I
    was often confused about where I was. Nielson,
    1990.

33
Visual Web Browser addresses the problem of lost
in hyperspace with a sense of space.
  • Graphic Web Browser addresses the fundamental
    problem of lost in hyperspace by displaying a
    sequence of logical visual frames with a graphic
    history tail to track the users current
    location and keep records of his previous
    locations in the huge information space.
  • The logical neighborhood of the focus nodes
    indicates the current location of the user, and
    the tail of history indicates the path of the
    past locations during the navigation.

34
Application2File Managementand Site Mapping
An example of using Space-Optimized Tree
Visualization for a small web site mapping
(approximately 80 pages) - viewing techniques
needed
Mapping to a Unix root with approx. 3700
directories and files
35
Application3 Web Reverse Engineering
  • HWIT (Human Web Interface Tool) is able to reuse
    existing structures of web site by visualizing
    and modifying the corresponding web graphs, and
    then re-generating a new site by save the
    modified web graphs.

The layout of an existing structure of a web site
Enhancing the existing Web site by adding a
sub-site
36
Application4 B2C e-Commerce
  • VOS (Visual Online Shop) can be used for online
    grocery shopping, shopping cart model. It is
    applicable to any e-commerce shopping application
    (dynamically navigate e-catalogs).

37
Application5 Online Business Process
Management
  • WbIVC (Web-based Interactive Visual Component) is
    applied to a research project management system
    (RPMS) in universities.
  • A participant can review the details of a
    specific process element by clicking on the
    corresponding rectangle, and then selecting the
    open a process element in the popup menu.
  • A participant can also create a new artifact (a
    Java methods) to a research project by opening a
    edit window.

Application6 Program Understandingand Software
Mining
  • JavaMiner is for non-linear visual browsing of
    huge java code for programming understanding.
  • textual data mining
  • Visualize a variety of relationships between
    terms in Java code, e.g. HAS, SUBCLASS, CALL and
    INTERFACE relationships.
  • Text documents, the lexicon, the neighborhood
    function

Conclusion
  • Reference model approximates the basic steps for
    visualizing information
  • Steps are an ongoing process with many iterations
  • Goal of information visualization develop
    effective mappings to increase ability to
    think/to improve cognition
