We describe a framework for the display of complex, multidimensional data, designed to
facilitate exploration, analysis, and collaboration among multiple analysts. This framework …

A visual investigation involves both the examination of existing information and the synthesis
of new analytic knowledge. This is a progressive process in which newly synthesized …

Visual analytic tools allow analysts to generate large collections of useful analytical results.
We anticipate that analysts in most real world situations will draw from these collections …

Studying how humans interact with abstract, visual representations of massive amounts of
data provides knowledge about how cognition works in visual analytics. This knowledge …

A new field of research, visual analytics, has been introduced. This has been defined as" the
science of analytical reasoning facilitated by interactive visual interfaces"(Thomas and Cook …

We introduce a visual analytics environment for the support of remote-collaborative sense-
making activities. Team members use their individual graphical interfaces to collect …

In today's applications data is produced at unprecedented rates. While the capacity to collect
and store new data grows rapidly, the ability to analyze these data volumes increases at …

Analysis supported by interactive visual interfaces is a complex process. It involves
computational analytics (the visualization of both raw and derived data) and an analytical …

We present a visualization environment called the scalable reasoning system (SRS) that
provides a suite of tools for the collection, analysis, and dissemination of reasoning …

Information visualization leverages the human visual system to support the process of
sensemaking, in which information is collected, organized, and analyzed to generate …
