Data visualizations are central to scientific communication, journalism, and everyday decision-making, yet they are frequently prone to errors that can distort interpretation or mislead audiences. Rule-based visualization linters can flag…
Graph property detection aims to determine whether a graph exhibits certain structural properties, such as being Hamiltonian. Recently, learning-based approaches have shown great promise by leveraging data-driven models to detect graph…
Most existing motion planning algorithms assume that a map (of some quality) is fully determined prior to generating a motion plan. In many emerging applications of robotics, e.g., fast-moving agile aerial robots with constrained embedded…
This document gives a specification for the model used in [1]. It presents a simple way of optimizing mutual information between some input and the attractors of a (noisy) network, using a genetic algorithm. The nodes of this network are…
This article proposes an architecture, which allows the prediction of intention by internally simulating perceptual states represented by action pattern vectors. To this end, associative self-organising neural networks (A-SOM) is utilised…
Modern online platforms offer users an opportunity to participate in a variety of content-creation, social networking, and shopping activities. With the rapid proliferation of such online services, learning data-driven user behavior models…
Making sense of a visualization requires the reader to consider both the visualization design and the underlying data values. Existing work in the visualization community has largely considered affordances driven by visualization design…
Humans inherently recognize objects via selective visual perception, transform specific regions from the visual field into structured symbolic knowledge, and reason their relationships among regions based on the allocation of limited…
Predicting user churn in non-subscription gig platforms, where disengagement is implicit, poses unique challenges due to the absence of explicit labels and the dynamic nature of user behavior. Existing methods often rely on aggregated…
Web-based data visualizations have become very popular for exploring data and communicating insights. Newspapers, journals, and reports regularly publish visualizations to tell compelling stories with data. Unfortunately, most…
As one of the most commonly seen data challenges, missing data, in particular, multiple, non-monotone missing patterns, complicates estimation and inference due to the fact that missingness mechanisms are often not missing at random, and…
In the digital landscape, the ubiquity of data visualizations in media underscores the necessity for accessibility to ensure inclusivity for all users, including those with visual impairments. Current visual content often fails to cater to…
Reliable and interpretable traffic crash modeling is essential for understanding causality and improving road safety. This study introduces a novel approach to predicting collision types by utilizing a comprehensive dataset fused from…
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown promise in generating plotting code from chart images, yet achieving structural fidelity remains challenging. Existing approaches largely rely on supervised fine-tuning, encouraging surface-level…
With the rise of mobile-first consumption, users increasingly engage with data visualizations on mobile devices. However, the vast majority of existing visualizations are originally authored for desktop environments. Due to significant…
Functional graphical models explore dependence relationships of random processes. This is achieved through estimating the precision matrix of the coefficients from the Karhunen-Loeve expansion. This paper deals with the problem of…
Designers often create visualizations to achieve specific high-level analytical or communication goals. These goals require people to extract complex and interconnected data patterns. Prior perceptual studies of visualization effectiveness…
Journalists and visualization designers include visualizations in their articles and storytelling tools to deliver their message effectively. But design decisions they make to represent information, such as the graphical dimensions they…
Causal thinking enables humans to understand not just what is seen, but why it happens. To replicate this capability in modern AI systems, we introduce the task of visual causal discovery. It requires models to infer cause-and-effect…
Memory bandwidth is strongly correlated to the complexity of the memory access pattern of a running application. To improve memory performance of applications with irregular and/or unpredictable memory patterns, we need tools to analyze…
