Complex data analysis inherently seeks unexpected insights through exploratory visual analysis methods, transcending logical, step-by-step processing. However, existing interfaces such as notebooks and dashboards have limitations in…
Complexity in biology is often described using a multi-map architecture, where the genotype, representing the encoded information, is mapped to the functional level, known as the phenotype, which is then connected to a latent phenotype we…
A significant advancement in bioinformatics is using genome graph techniques to improve variation discovery across organisms. Traditional approaches, such as bwa mem, rely on linear reference genomes for genomic analyses but may introduce…
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully identified a large number of genetic variants associated with traits and diseases. However, it still remains challenging to fully understand functional mechanisms underlying many…
In a world with data that change rapidly and abruptly, it is important to detect those changes accurately. In this paper we describe an R package implementing a generalized version of an algorithm recently proposed by Hocking et al. [2020]…
Motivation: Predicting gene-disease associations (GDAs) is the problem to determine which gene is associated with a disease. GDA prediction can be framed as a ranking problem where genes are ranked for a query disease, based on features…
Infinite-state systems such as distributed protocols are challenging to verify using interactive theorem provers or automatic verification tools. Of these techniques, deductive verification is highly expressive but requires the user to…
We present InvVis, a new approach for invertible visualization, which is reconstructing or further modifying a visualization from an image. InvVis allows the embedding of a significant amount of data, such as chart data, chart information,…
Complex, high-dimensional data is used in a wide range of domains to explore problems and make decisions. Analysis of high-dimensional data, however, is vulnerable to the hidden influence of confounding variables, especially as users apply…
Electrocardiography (ECG) is adopted for identity authentication in wearable devices due to its individual-specific characteristics and inherent liveness. However, existing methods often treat heartbeats as homogeneous signals, overlooking…
The value proposition of a dataset often resides in the implicit interconnections or explicit relationships (patterns) among individual entities, and is often modeled as a graph. Effective visualization of such graphs can lead to key…
The format of graphing algorithms for genomic data has been a debate in recent biotechnology. In this paper, we discuss the construction of population graphs using said genomic data. We first examine the GENPOFAD distance measurement,…
Analyzing large, multivariate graphs is an important problem in many domains, yet such graphs are challenging to visualize. In this paper, we introduce a novel, scalable, tree+table multivariate graph visualization technique, which makes…
Research in several fields now requires the analysis of data sets in which multiple high-dimensional types of data are available for a common set of objects. In particular, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) includes data from several diverse…
Graph mining to extract interesting components has been studied in various guises, e.g., communities, dense subgraphs, cliques. However, most existing works are based on notions of frequency and connectivity and do not capture subjective…
The ability to effectively visualize data is crucial in the contemporary world where information is often voluminous and complex. Visualizations, such as charts, graphs, and maps, provide an intuitive and easily understandable means to…
Visualization is a powerful paradigm for exploratory data analysis. Visualizing large graphs, however, often results in a meaningless hairball. In this paper, we propose a different approach that helps the user adaptively explore large…
