Of the many types of maps, thematic maps perform an important function due to the wide possibilities of adapting their content to current needs. The limitation of classic maps is their two-dimensional nature. In the era of rapidly growing methods of mass acquisition of spatial data, the use of flat images is often not enough to reveal the level of complexity of certain objects. In this case, it is necessary to use visualization in three-dimensional space. The motivation to conduct the study was the use of cartographic projections methods, spatial transformations, and the possibilities offered by thematic maps to create thematic three-dimensional map imaging (T3DMI). The authors presented a practical verification of the adopted methodology to create a T3DMI visualization of Citation: Dabrowski, P.S.; Specht, C.; Specht, M.; Makar, A. the marina of the National Sailing Centre of the GdańskUniversity of Physical Education and Sport Three-Dimensional Thematic Map (Poland).

4.3 Discovering Fractal Geometry in CAAD
4.3 Discovering Fractal Geometry in CAAD Francisco Garcia, Angel Fernandez*, Javier Barrallo* Facultad de Informatica. Universidad de Deusto Bilbao. SPAIN E.T.S. de Arquitectura. Universidad del Pais Vasco. San Sebastian. SPAIN * Fractal geometry provides a powerful tool to explore the world of non-integer dimensions. Very short programs, easily comprehensible, can generate an extensive range of shapes and colors that can help us to understand the world we are living. This shapes are specially interesting in the simulation of plants, mountains, clouds and any kind of landscape, from deserts to rain-forests. The environment design, aleatory or conditioned, is one of the most important contributions of fractal geometry to CAAD. On a small scale, the design of fractal textures makes possible the simulation, in a very concise way, of wood, vegetation, water, minerals and a long list of materials very useful in photorealistic modeling. Introduction Fractal Geometry constitutes today one of the most fertile areas of investigation nowadays. Practically all the branches of scientific knowledge, like biology, mathematics, geology, chemistry, engineering, medicine, etc. have applied fractals to simulate and explain behaviors difficult to understand through traditional methods. Also in the world of computer aided design, fractal sets have shown up with strength, with numerous software applications using design tools based on fractal techniques. These techniques basically allow the effective and realistic reproduction of any kind of forms and textures that appear in nature: trees and plants, rocks and minerals, clouds, water, etc. For modern computer graphics, the access to these techniques, combined with ray tracing allow to create incredible landscapes and effects.

Volume Rendering
Volume Rendering 1.1. Introduction Rapid advances in hardware have been transforming revolutionary approaches in computer graphics into reality. One typical example is the raster graphics that took place in the seventies, when hardware innovations enabled the transition from vector graphics to raster graphics. Another example which has a similar potential is currently shaping up in the field of volume graphics. This trend is rooted in the extensive research and development effort in scientific visualization in general and in volume visualization in particular. Visualization is the usage of computer-supported, interactive, visual representations of data to amplify cognition. Scientific visualization is the visualization of physically based data. Volume visualization is a method of extracting meaningful information from volumetric datasets through the use of interactive graphics and imaging, and is concerned with the representation, manipulation, and rendering of volumetric datasets. Its objective is to provide mechanisms for peering inside volumetric datasets and to enhance the visual understanding. Traditional 3D graphics is based on surface representation. Most common form is polygon-based surfaces for which affordable special-purpose rendering hardware have been developed in the recent years. Volume graphics has the potential to greatly advance the field of 3D graphics by offering a comprehensive alternative to conventional surface representation methods. The object of this thesis is to examine the existing methods for volume visualization and to find a way of efficiently rendering scientific data with commercially available hardware, like PC’s, without requiring dedicated systems. 1.2. Volume Rendering Our display screens are composed of a two-dimensional array of pixels each representing a unit area.

(b) The animated presentations for this infographic show the start time, duration, and animation effects applied to the visual elements. InfoMotion automatically generates animated presentations of static infographics. Abstract By displaying visual elements logically in temporal order, animated infographics can help readers better understand layers of information expressed in an infographic. While many techniques and tools target the quick generation of static infographics, few support animation designs. We propose InfoMotion that automatically generates animated presentations of static infographics. We ﬁrst conduct a survey to explore the design space of animated infographics. Based on this survey, InfoMotion extracts graphical properties of an infographic to analyze the underlying information structures; then, animation effects are applied to the visual elements in the infographic in temporal order to present the infographic. The generated animations can be used in data videos or presentations. We demonstrate the utility of InfoMotion with two example applications, including mixed-initiative animation authoring and animation recommendation.

Members | Diagnostic Imaging Tests
Types of Diagnostic Imaging Tests There are several types of diagnostic imaging tests. Each type is used based on what the provider is looking for. Radiography: A quick, painless test that takes a picture of the inside of your body. These tests are also known as X-rays and mammograms. This test uses low doses of radiation. Fluoroscopy: Uses many X-ray images that are shown on a screen. It is like an X-ray “movie.” To make images clear, providers use a contrast agent (dye) that is put into your body. These tests can result in high doses of radiation. This often happens during procedures that take a long time (such as placing stents or other devices inside your body). Tests include: Barium X-rays and enemas Cardiac catheterization Upper GI endoscopy Angiogram Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA): Use magnets and radio waves to create pictures of your body. An MRA is a type of MRI that looks at blood vessels. Neither an MRI nor an MRA uses radiation, so there is no exposure. Ultrasound: Uses sound waves to make pictures of the inside of your body. This test does not use radiation, so there is no exposure. Computed Tomography (CT) Scan: Uses a detector that moves around your body and records many X- ray images. A computer then builds pictures or “slices” of organs and tissues. A CT scan uses more radiation than other imaging tests. A CT scan is often used to answer, “What does it look like?” Nuclear Medicine Imaging: Uses a radioactive tracer to produce pictures of your body.

Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies Volume: 3 – Issue: 1 – January - 2013 Information Graphics Design Challenges and Workflow Management Marco Giardina, University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland, Pablo Medina, Sensiel Research, Switzerland Abstract Infographics, though still in its infancy in the digital world, may offer an opportunity for media companies to enhance their business processes and value creation activities. This paper describes research about the influence of infographics production and dissemination on media companies’ workflow management. Drawing on infographics examples from New York Times print and online version, this contribution empirically explores the evolution from static to interactive multimedia infographics, the possibilities and design challenges of this journalistic emerging field and its impact on media companies’ activities in relation to technology changes and media-use patterns. Findings highlight some explorative ideas about the required workflow and journalism activities for a successful inception of infographics into online news dissemination practices of media companies. Conclusions suggest that delivering infographics represents a yet not fully tapped opportunity for media companies, but its successful inception on news production routines requires skilled professionals in audiovisual journalism and revised business models. Keywords: newspapers, visual communication, infographics, digital media technology © Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies 108 Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies Volume: 3 – Issue: 1 – January - 2013 During this time of unprecedented change in journalism, media practitioners and scholars find themselves mired in a new debate on the storytelling potential of data visualization narratives.

Inviwo — a Visualization System with Usage Abstraction Levels
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON VISUALIZATION AND COMPUTER GRAPHICS, VOL X, NO. Y, MAY 2019 1 Inviwo — A Visualization System with Usage Abstraction Levels Daniel Jonsson,¨ Peter Steneteg, Erik Sunden,´ Rickard Englund, Sathish Kottravel, Martin Falk, Member, IEEE, Anders Ynnerman, Ingrid Hotz, and Timo Ropinski Member, IEEE, Abstract—The complexity of today’s visualization applications demands specific visualization systems tailored for the development of these applications. Frequently, such systems utilize levels of abstraction to improve the application development process, for instance by providing a data flow network editor. Unfortunately, these abstractions result in several issues, which need to be circumvented through an abstraction-centered system design. Often, a high level of abstraction hides low level details, which makes it difficult to directly access the underlying computing platform, which would be important to achieve an optimal performance. Therefore, we propose a layer structure developed for modern and sustainable visualization systems allowing developers to interact with all contained abstraction levels. We refer to this interaction capabilities as usage abstraction levels, since we target application developers with various levels of experience. We formulate the requirements for such a system, derive the desired architecture, and present how the concepts have been exemplary realized within the Inviwo visualization system. Furthermore, we address several specific challenges that arise during the realization of such a layered architecture, such as communication between different computing platforms, performance centered encapsulation, as well as layer-independent development by supporting cross layer documentation and debugging capabilities. Index Terms—Visualization systems, data visualization, visual analytics, data analysis, computer graphics, image processing. F 1 INTRODUCTION The field of visualization is maturing, and a shift can be employing different layers of abstraction.

An Online System for Classifying Computer Graphics Images from Natural Photographs
An Online System for Classifying Computer Graphics Images from Natural Photographs Tian-Tsong Ng and Shih-Fu Chang fttng,[email protected] Department of Electrical Engineering Columbia University New York, USA ABSTRACT We describe an online system for classifying computer generated images and camera-captured photographic images, as part of our effort in building a complete passive-blind system for image tampering detection (project website at http: //www.ee.columbia.edu/trustfoto). Users are able to submit any image from a local or an online source to the system and get classification results with confidence scores. Our system has implemented three different algorithms from the state of the art based on the geometry, the wavelet, and the cartoon features. We describe the important algorithmic issues involved for achieving satisfactory performances in both speed and accuracy as well as the capability to handle diverse types of input images. We studied the effects of image size reduction on classification accuracy and speed, and found different size reduction methods worked best for different classification methods. In addition, we incorporated machine learning techniques, such as fusion and subclass-based bagging, in order to counter the effect of performance degradation caused by image size reduction. With all these improvements, we are able to speed up the classification speed by more than two times while keeping the classification accuracy almost intact at about 82%. Keywords: Computer graphics, photograph, classification, online system, geometry features, classifier fusion 1. INTRODUCTION The level of photorealism capable by today’s computer graphics makes distinguishing photographic and computer graphic images difficult.
