Sonification serves as a powerful tool for data accessibility, especially for people with vision loss. Among various modalities, speech is a familiar means of communication similar to the role of text in visualization. However, speech-based…
Sonification, or encoding information in meaningful audio signatures, has several advantages in augmenting or replacing traditional visualization methods for human-in-the-loop decision-making. Standard sonification methods reported in the…
SIREN is a flexible, extensible, and customizable web-based general-purpose interface for auditory data display (sonification). Designed as a digital audio workstation for sonification, synthesizers written in JavaScript using the Web Audio…
We propose a design space for data melodification, where standard visualization idioms and fundamental data characteristics map to rhetorical devices of music for a more affective experience of data. Traditional data sonification transforms…
Sonification is the science of communication of data and events to users through sounds. Auditory icons, earcons, and speech are the common auditory display schemes utilized in sonification, or more specifically in the use of audio to…
The project described in this paper explores the informative sonification of data received in real time from a supercomputer. These data capture the current activities in all the nodes of the computer, therefore, their sonification…
The research communities studying visualization and sonification for data display and analysis share exceptionally similar goals, essentially making data of any kind interpretable to humans. One community does so by using visual…
Data Visualization has been receiving growing attention recently, with ubiquitous smart devices designed to render information in a variety of ways. However, while evaluations of visual tools for their interpretability and intuitiveness…
Musical expressivity and coherence are indispensable in music composition and performance, while often neglected in modern AI generative models. In this work, we introduce a listening-based data-processing technique that captures the…
Solid materials may appear static, but at the atomic scale they are in constant vibrational motion. These vibrations, described by phonons, govern many key material properties, including structural stability, mechanical strength, optical…
Training audio-to-image generative models requires an abundance of diverse audio-visual pairs that are semantically aligned. Such data is almost always curated from in-the-wild videos, given the cross-modal semantic correspondence that is…
The field of sonification, using of non-speech audio for data analysis, is already established in space sciences. Meetings like "The audible Universe" focus on sonification tools applied in astronomy to represent complex data like nebulae…
Astronomy is a discipline primarily reliant on visual data. However, alternative data representation techniques are being explored, in particular ''sonification'', namely, the representation of data into sound. While there is increasing…
Sonification is a data visualization technique which expresses data attributes via psychoacoustic parameters, which are non-speech audio signals used to convey information. This paper investigates the binary estimation of cognitive load…
Using sonification on scientific data analysis provides additional dimensions to visualization, potentially increasing researchers' analytical capabilities and fostering inclusion and accessibility. This research explores the potential of…
Modeling of music audio semantics has been previously tackled through learning of mappings from audio data to high-level tags or latent unsupervised spaces. The resulting semantic spaces are theoretically limited, either because the chosen…
Pitch-based sonification of quantitative data increases the accessibility of data visualizations that are otherwise inaccessible for blind and low-vision (BLV) individuals. We argue that, although pitch representations can reveal the…
The convergence between astronomy and data sonification represents a significant advancement in the approach and analysis of cosmic information. By surpassing the visual exclusivity in data analysis in astronomy, innovative projects have…
Annotations are a critical component of visualizations, helping viewers interpret the visual representation and highlighting critical data insights. Despite their significant role, we lack an understanding of how annotations can be…
Sonification research is intrinsically interdisciplinary. Consequently, a proper documentation of, and interdisciplinary discourse about a sonification is often hindered by terminology discrepancies between involved disciplines, i.e., the…
