- Visual analytics aims to combine the strengths of human and electronic data processing. Visualisation, whereby humans and computers cooperate through graphics, is the means through which this is achieved. Seamless and sophisticated synergies are required for analysing spatio-temporal data and solving spatio-temporal problems. In modern society, spatio-temporal analysis is not solely the business of professional analysts. Many citizens need or would be interested in undertaking analysis of information in time and space. Researchers should find approaches to deal with the complexities of the current data and problems and find ways to make analytical tools accessible and usable for the broad community of potential users to support spatio-temporal thinking and contribute to solving a large range of problems.

Scalable Cluster Analysis of Spatial Events
- 2012

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Clustering of massive data is an important analysis tool but also challenging since the data often does not fit in RAM. Many clustering algorithms are thus severely memory-bound. This paper proposes a deterministic density clustering algorithm based on DBSCAN that allows to discover arbitrary shaped clusters of spatio-temporal events that (1) achieves scalability to very large datasets not fitting in RAM and (2) exhibits significant execution time improvements for processing the full dataset compared to plain DBSCAN. The proposed algorithm's integration with interactive visualization methods allows for visual inspection of clustering results in the context of the analysis task; several alternatives are discussed by means of an application example about traffic data analysis.

The Flow of Trust : A Visualization Framework to Externalize, Explore, and Explain Trust in ML Applications
- 2023

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We present a conceptual framework for the development of visual interactive techniques to formalize and externalize trust in machine learning (ML) workflows. Currently, trust in ML applications is an implicit process that takes place in the user-s mind. As such, there is no method of feedback or communication of trust that can be acted upon. Our framework will be instrumental in developing interactive visualization approaches that will help users to efficiently and effectively build and communicate trust in ways that fit each of the ML process stages. We formulate several research questions and directions that include: 1) a typology/taxonomy of trust objects, trust issues, and possible reasons for (mis)trust; 2) formalisms to represent trust in machine-readable form; 3) means by which users can express their state of trust by interacting with a computer system (e.g., text, drawing, marking); 4) ways in which a system can facilitate users- expression and communication of the state of trust; and 5) creation of visual interactive techniques for representation and exploration of trust over all stages of an ML pipeline.

- Learning more about people mobility is an important task for official decision makers and urban planners. Mobility data sets characterize the variation of the presence of people in different places over time as well as movements (or flows) of people between the places. The analysis of mobility data is challenging due to the need to analyze and compare spatial situations (i.e., presence and flows of people in certain time intervals) and to gain an understanding of the spatio-temporal changes (variations of situations over time). Traditional flow visualizations usually fail due to massive clutter. Modern approaches offer limited support for investigating the complex variation of the movements over longer time periods.We propose a visual analytics methodology that solves these issues by combined spatial and temporal simplifications. We have developed a graph-based method, called MobilityGraphs, which reveals movement patterns that were occluded in flow maps. Our method enables the visual representation of the spatio-temporal variation of movements for long time series of spatial situations originally containing a large number of intersecting flows. The interactive system supports data exploration from various perspectives and at various levels of detail by interactive setting of clustering parameters. The feasibility our approach was tested on aggregated mobility data derived from a set of geolocated Twitter posts within the Greater London city area and mobile phone call data records in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. We could show that MobilityGraphs support the identification of regular daily and weekly movement patterns of resident population.

An Interactive Approach for Exploration of Flows Through Direction-Based Filtering
- 2017
-
Ingår i: Journal of Geovisualization and Spatial Analysis. - : Springer. - 2509-8810 .- 2509-8829. ; 1:1-2

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper is concerned with the representation and exploration of flows, defined as spatial interactions between geographic locations. Flows are challenging to display in a comprehensible manner due to the nature of the data, which are characterized by many crossings and overlaps leading to clutter. A number of different strategies have been suggested for addressing this problem, which commonly involve reducing the search space, aggregating the data or simplifying the representations often at the cost of information loss or distortion of spatial context. We propose an interactive approach for exploring large and highly connected networks of flows without distorting the geographical space and without losing the context overview in the process. The approach is based on a flow-specific interaction technique for filtering the data by direction, that enables an analyst to successively identify underlying spatial arrangement patterns. We illustrate our approach through exploring flows of tourists and locals in the Greater London area.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We explore the potential of applying graph theory measures of centrality to the network of movements extracted from sequences of georeferenced photo captures in order to identify interesting places and explore city structure. We adopt a systematic procedure composed of a series of stages involving the combination of computational methods and interactive visual analytics techniques. The approach is demonstrated using a collection of Flickr photos from the Seattle metropolitan area.

- We explore people's activities in space and time by analysing publicly available georefenced photographs. We do this using KD-photomap, a web-based visual analytics system for exploring collections of Flickr photographs and meta-data associated with them. The system provides an interface for flexible browsing of photographs in search of interesting pictures, and places, and also a framework for exploration of presence and identification of events in space and time.

SimpliFly: A Methodology for Simplification and Thematic Enhancement of Trajectories
- 2015
-
Ingår i: IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics. - : Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). - 1077-2626 .- 1941-0506. ; 21:1, s. 107-121

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Movement data sets collected using todays advanced tracking devices consist of complex trajectories in terms of length, shape, and number of recorded positions. Multiple additional attributes characterizing the movement and its environment are often also included making the level of complexity even higher. Simplification of trajectories can improve the visibility of relevant information by reducing less relevant details while maintaining important movement patterns. We propose a systematic stepwise methodology for simplifying and thematically enhancing trajectories in order to support their visual analysis. The methodology is applied iteratively and is composed of: (a) a simplification step applied to reduce the morphological complexity of the trajectories, (b) a thematic enhancement step which aims at accentuating patterns of movement, and (c) the representation and interactive exploration of the results in order to make interpretations of the findings and further refinement to the simplification and enhancement process. We illustrate our methodology through an analysis example of two different types of tracks, aircraft and pedestrian movement.
