The proposal on the floor is to focus on the changes in the VAST (and SciVis) call for papers with an eye to findings examples of papers that fall under the new Applications and Evaluation topics and to discuss them in ways that reflect the new instructions to reviewers. That would prepare us to take advantage of these new categories and reviewing metrics when we write our VAST submissions and plan future research.

===Summer 2012.  Social Network Analysis===
 +
From this term we will be giving flavors to the reading group by having term-themes. We of course invite every kind of discussion and we can certainly accomodate more readings inspired by the common topic being covered. That said, during this summer the following sub-topics would shape the discussion:
 +
 +
* '''Background''': What is social network analysis? What are the dominant theories? What are the characteristics of the raw data?  How do researchers make sense of, and draw conclusions from, the data they collect on social networks? What types of techniques are available? Compare two analysis techniques.
 +
 +
* '''Visualization''': Why are VA tools so useful for social network analysis? What are the standard visual representation techniques (layout, encoding, etc.)? What are the alternatives to node-link diagrams? Compare two new approaches/tools. 
 +
 +
* '''Interaction''': What are the standard interaction techniques for static social network analysis/exploration? How have designers dealt with temporal dynamics? Compare two new approaches/tools.
 +
 +
* '''Evaluation''': How are social network analysis visual analytics tools evaluated? What does 'success' look like in this domain? Compare two evaluation papers.

Reading Group

We are an informal reading group that meets once a week to discuss papers related to Visual Analytics, Information Visualization, and HCI in general.

Time: Wednesday 2:30 PM

Location: Room 2746 at SFU Surrey


Spring 2015 proposed topic: Application papers

The proposal on the floor is to focus on the changes in the VAST (and SciVis) call for papers with an eye to findings examples of papers that fall under the new Applications and Evaluation topics and to discuss them in ways that reflect the new instructions to reviewers. That would prepare us to take advantage of these new categories and reviewing metrics when we write our VAST submissions and plan future research.

The new paper types are here: [1]

Discussed Papers

Fall 2014: Text Analytics

VAST Challenge 2014

Winter 2014: Collaborative Synthesis

Fall 2013: Branching and Subjuncts

Summer 2012. Social Network Analysis

From this term we will be giving flavors to the reading group by having term-themes. We of course invite every kind of discussion and we can certainly accomodate more readings inspired by the common topic being covered. That said, during this summer the following sub-topics would shape the discussion:

  • Background: What is social network analysis? What are the dominant theories? What are the characteristics of the raw data? How do researchers make sense of, and draw conclusions from, the data they collect on social networks? What types of techniques are available? Compare two analysis techniques.
  • Visualization: Why are VA tools so useful for social network analysis? What are the standard visual representation techniques (layout, encoding, etc.)? What are the alternatives to node-link diagrams? Compare two new approaches/tools.
  • Interaction: What are the standard interaction techniques for static social network analysis/exploration? How have designers dealt with temporal dynamics? Compare two new approaches/tools.
  • Evaluation: How are social network analysis visual analytics tools evaluated? What does 'success' look like in this domain? Compare two evaluation papers.
