Information Visualization Enabling Data Insights

Visualizations serve as communication medium between human and computer and support the understanding of abstract data and relationships within. Employing proper visualization and interaction techniques enables insights to hidden data patterns.

Information Visualization supports ill-defined real-world analysis tasks of large and/or heterogenous data. We develop novel visualization algorithms and methods to gain insights and explore data sets. In our research, we combine visualization and analysis techniques with respect to the task and context. Our Experts support analysts in:

  • Generating Hypotheses: Domain experts are enabled to create research hypothesis for an unknown data set
  • Identifying Patterns: Common or unusual patterns are revealed with the help of semi-automated visual methods
  • Explaining Patterns: The context of an identified pattern is identified and visualized
