Task-Directed Visualization

9412922贝克本规划资助奖旨在调查以知识为基础的科学可视化辅助系统，目的是为用户描述数据类型、任务分析和所征求意见的可视化项目的系统环境，为用户提供智能帮助。以任务为导向的可视化范例涉及为所描述的任务自动构建可视化。这项计划调查包括了解科学家使用可视化的任务类型，以及任务与不同视觉显示效果之间的关系。作为该计划的一部分进行经验研究，以从反映可视化用户的共同分析目标的任务集合中确定不同任务的不同可视化的相对有效性--该可视化用户将被并入自动化可视化助理的规则中。

9412922 Baker This planning grant award is oriented to the investigation of a knowledge-based scientific visualization assisting system with the purpose of providing intelligent assistance to a user upon the description of the type of data, the analysis of the task, and the system environment for the visualization project for which the advice is sought. The paradigm of task-directed visualization involves the automatic construction of the visualization for the task that has been described. This planning investigation involves understanding the types of tasks for which scientists use visualization, as well as the relation between the task and the effectiveness of different visual displays. Empirical studies are carried out as part of this planning to determine the relative effectiveness of different visualizations of different tasks from a collection of tasks reflecting common analysis goals of the visualization-user to be incorporated in the rules of the automated visualization assistant.
