The determination of space layout is one of the primary activities in the schematic design stage of an architectural project. The initial layout planning defines the shape, dimension, and circulation pattern of internal spaces; which can…
The principle of abstraction guides the design of interactive systems, yet we lack a conceptual framework to understand how it shapes interaction design. Existing models, such as the gulfs of execution and evaluation, do not explicitly…
Selecting the appropriate visual presentation of the data such that it preserves the semantics of the underlying data and at the same time provides an intuitive summary of the data is an important, often the final step of data analytics.…
Designers often create visualizations to achieve specific high-level analytical or communication goals. These goals require people to naturally extract complex, contextualized, and interconnected patterns in data. While limited prior work…
Image captioning implies automatically generating textual descriptions of images based only on the visual input. Although this has been an extensively addressed research topic in recent years, not many contributions have been made in the…
Animated data videos have gained significant popularity in recent years. However, authoring data videos remains challenging due to the complexity of creating and coordinating diverse components (e.g., visualization, animation, audio, etc.).…
Information visualization plays a key role in business intelligence analytics. With ever larger amounts of data that need to be interpreted, using the right visualizations is crucial in order to understand the underlying patterns and…
Despite seemingly performant web agents on the task-completion benchmarks, most existing methods evaluate the agents based on a presupposition: the web navigation task consists of linear sequence of actions with an end state that marks task…
Diffusion models achieve state-of-the-art performance in generating realistic objects and have been successfully applied to images, text, and videos. Recent work has shown that diffusion can also be defined on graphs, including graph…
We introduce LICA (Layered Image Composition Annotations), a large scale dataset of 1,550,244 multi-layer graphic design compositions designed to advance structured understanding and generation of graphic layouts. In addition to rendered…
Data-rich documents are ubiquitous in various applications, yet they often rely solely on textual descriptions to convey data insights. Prior research primarily focused on providing visualization-centric augmentation to data-rich documents.…
Graphical User Interface (GUI) is not merely a collection of individual and unrelated widgets, but rather partitions discrete widgets into groups by various visual cues, thus forming higher-order perceptual units such as tab, menu, card or…
Data visualization is the process by which data of any size or dimensionality is processed to produce an understandable set of data in a lower dimensionality, allowing it to be manipulated and understood more easily by people. The goal of…
Visualization researchers and visualization professionals seek appropriate abstractions of visualization requirements that permit considering visualization solutions independently from specific problems. Abstractions can help us design,…
Mathematical knowledge exists in many forms, ranging from informal textbooks and lecture notes to large formal proof libraries, yet moving between these representations remains difficult. Informal texts hide dependencies, while formal…
Aesthetics or "look and feel" is one of the most important features of any graphical user interface. Better aesthetics makes the interface user-friendlier and more popular. Better aesthetics helps the user to understand the meaning of…
Understanding infographic charts with design-driven visual elements (e.g., pictograms, icons) requires both visual recognition and reasoning, posing challenges for multimodal large language models (MLLMs). However, existing visual-question…
Metaphoric glyphs enhance the readability and learnability of abstract glyphs used for the visualization of quantitative multidimensional data by building upon graphical entities that are intuitively related to the underlying problem…
We apply an approach from cognitive linguistics by mapping Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT) to the visualization domain to address patterns of visual conceptual metaphors that are often used in science infographics. Metaphors play an…
Scientific diagrams are essential for communicating complex methodologies in academic papers. A natural way for researchers to specify such diagrams is through rough sketches, where text labels, connectors, and spatial arrangements express…
