在这篇文章中，我们介绍了一种新的时间轴可视化技术，TimeSets，它通过显示单个事件之间的集合关系来帮助理解复杂的时间数据集。TimeSets可视地将共享一个主题（如地点或人员）的事件分组，同时保留它们的时间顺序。它动态调整每个事件的详细程度，以适应信息量和显示区域。探讨了各种设计方案，以解决一个活动属于多个主题等问题。进行了对照实验，通过将其与KelpFusion方法进行比较来评估其有效性。结果表明，在准确性和用户偏好方面具有显着优势。
In this article, we introduce a novel timeline visualization technique, TimeSets, that helps make sense of complex temporal datasets by showing the set relationships among individual events. TimeSets visually groups events that share a topic, such as a place or a person, while preserving their temporal order. It dynamically adjusts the level of detail for each event to suit the amount of information and display estate. Various design options were explored to address issues such as one event belonging to multiple topics. A controlled experiment was conducted to evaluate its effectiveness by comparing it to the KelpFusion method. The results showed significant advantage in accuracy and user preference.
