Trends in interactive visualization: state-of-the-art survey

The purpose of Interactive Visualization is to develop new scientific methodsto increase scientists’ abilities to explore data and to understand better the results of experiments based on extensive calculations. These techniques notonly provide users with a possibility to view the data but also permit them to use interaction capabilities to interrogate and navigate through datasets and communicate these insights. This book is a unique multi-disciplinary collection of scientific articles, which provides readers with insight in InteractiveVisualization from various perspectives, representing the state-of-the-art with the special emphasis on: Advanced visualization algorithms and methods, Interactive data exploration, Display systems and interaction techniques, Multi-modal and collaborative visualization, Design and evaluation of interactive visualization tools and systems, Various application topics. First fully integrated book on Interactive Visualisation Multi-disciplinary approach Provides an overview of advanced visualisation algorithms and methods Discusses principles for choosing appropriate display systems and input/output devices Explores strategies for design and evaluation of interactive visualisation and explorationtools Presents successful case studies using virtual and augmented reality technologies INDICE: Part I Introduction.- Overview of Interactive Visualization.- PartII Challenges in Data Mapping.- Visualization of Information Uncertainty: Progress and Challenges.- Parallel Co-ordinates: Interactive Visualization for High Dimensions.- Interactive Particle Visualization.- Visual Parameters and Transfer Functions.- Part 111 Design and Evaluation.- Gaining Greater Insight through Interactive Visualization.- A Human Factors Perspective.- Perceptual and Design Principles for Effective Interactive Visualizations.- Applying a User-centred Approach to Interactive Visualization Design.- A Visualization Framework for Collaborative Virtual Environment Usage Information.- Part IV Novel UserInterfaces.- Virtual-Reality Based Interactive Scientific Visualization Environments.- Interactive Molecular Visualization at the Interface.- Point, Talk, and Publish: Visualization and the Web.- Part V Integrating Visualization and Modeling.- Extending Measurement Science to Interactive Visualization Environments
