Generation of Semantic Layouts for Interactive Multidimensional Data Visualization
Generation of Semantic Layouts for Interactive Multidimensional Data Visualization Erick Gomez-Nieto∗y and Luis Gustavo Nonatoy ∗Research and Innovation Center in Computer Science Universidad Católica San Pablo, Arequipa, Peru yInstituto de Ciências Matemáticas e de Computação Universidade de São Paulo São Carlos-SP, Brazil Abstract—Visualization methods make use of interactive are easily readable, but they pay the price of scalability. graphical representations embedded on a display area in order Hierarchical methods such as Treemaps mitigate the issue to enable data exploration and analysis. These typically rely of scalability while making an efficient use of display area. on geometric primitives for representing data or building more sophisticated representations to assist the visual analysis process. However, readability and semantic organization of data are One of the most challenging tasks in this context is to determinate aspects not so easily handled by those methods. Overlap-free an optimal layout of these primitives which turns out to be semantic preserving techniques generate somewhat structured effective and informative. Existing algorithms for building layouts layouts and keep instances with similar content close to each from geometric primitives are typically designed to cope with other. Nevertheless, they are not designed to make an efficient requirements such as orthogonal alignment, overlap removal, optimal area usage, hierarchical organization, dynamic update use of display area and also suffer from scalability. among others. However, most techniques are able to tackle just Handling many requirements is not straightforward because a few of those requirements simultaneously, impairing their distinct requirements can compete with each other during use and flexibility. In this dissertation, we propose a set of layout construction.

2006 JAGUAR XK EMOTIONS SHOULD BE SHAKEN, NOT STIRRED How can something mechanical have an effect on us that’s so emotional? This is the delicious mystery of what the engineers and designers of the Jaguar XK have created. A sports car made from perfectly rendered instruments of steel and aluminum, leather and wood, all instilled with an intent to perform, all informed by technology both advanced and useful. Drive an XK and you’ll instantly sense the individual systems at work: the powerful V8 engine, the agile suspension, the reassuring braking. But drive it for any length of time, and the individual sensations meld into one as you and your XK become inseparable parts of a singular experience. 2 SHAPED BY AN IDEAL Few shapes ever put into motion are more admired than the seductive silhouette of a Jaguar XK. Perhaps that is because the XK is understood to be the embodiment of an automotive ideal, an interpretation of the sports car, still faithful to the notion that such cars should be not merely fast, but also beautiful. The two objectives share a singular strategy: an exterior whose specific curves, creases and folds leverage the wind while delighting the soul. The XK’s sleek aerodynamic profile helps it achieve multiple design aims, both technical and aesthetic. The air flowing over it, for example, has been studied in a wind tunnel to ensure it serves functional needs: cooling the massive disc brakes to help fight brake fade, reducing cabin wind noise, and applying aerodynamic downforce on the car to ensure this legendary Jaguar performs as you would expect.
