Sine illusion happens when the more quickly changing pairs of lines lead to bigger underestimates of the delta between them. We evaluate three visual manipulations on mitigating sine illusions: dotted lines, aligned gridlines, and offset…
Visualizations are common methods to convey information but also increasingly used to spread misinformation. It is therefore important to understand the factors people use to interpret visualizations. In this paper, we focus on factors that…
We investigate variability overweighting, a previously undocumented bias in line graphs, where estimates of average value are biased toward areas of higher variability in that line. We found this effect across two preregistered experiments…
Dynamic Graph Neural Networks (DGNNs) have emerged as the predominant approach for processing dynamic graph-structured data. However, the influence of temporal information on model performance and robustness remains insufficiently explored,…
Data analysts often need to work with multiple series of data---conventionally shown as line charts---at once. Few visual representations allow analysts to view many lines simultaneously without becoming overwhelming or cluttered. In this…
The accuracy of recommender systems influences their trust and decision-making when using them. Providing additional information, such as visualizations, offers context that would otherwise be lacking. However, the role of visualizations in…
Dynamic link prediction is an important problem considered in many recent works that propose approaches for learning temporal edge patterns. To assess their efficacy, models are evaluated on continuous-time and discrete-time temporal graph…
Many predictions are probabilistic in nature; for example, a prediction could be for precipitation tomorrow, but with only a 30 percent chance. Given both the predictions and the actual outcomes, "reliability diagrams" (also known as…
Charts used for persuasion can easily veer into being outright misleading when, for instance, cherry-picked data is paired with a deceptive caption, as is commonly encountered on social media. The rise of interactive time-series data…
Much of modern practice in financial forecasting relies on technicals, an umbrella term for several heuristics applying visual pattern recognition to price charts. Despite its ubiquity in financial media, the reliability of its signals…
Line-based density plots are used to reduce visual clutter in line charts with a multitude of individual lines. However, these traditional density plots are often perceived ambiguously, which obstructs the user's identification of…
As the world increasingly relies on mathematical models for forecasts in different areas, effective communication of uncertainty in time series predictions is important for informed decision making. This study explores how users estimate…
Temporal graphs provide a useful model for many real-world networks. Unfortunately the majority of algorithmic problems we might consider on such graphs are intractable. There has been recent progress in defining structural parameters which…
Over the last decade, there has been an increasing interest in temporal graphs, pushed by a growing availability of temporally-annotated network data coming from social, biological and financial networks. Despite the importance of analyzing…
Many systems generate data as a set of triplets (a, b, c): they may represent that user a called b at time c or that customer a purchased product b in store c. These datasets are traditionally studied as networks with an extra dimension…
While the polar system may lack the universal familiarity of its Cartesian counterpart, it remains indispensable for certain tasks. Summary polar diagrams, such as Taylor and mutual information diagrams, address tasks like discovering…
Temporal networks have been increasingly used to model a diversity of systems that evolve in time; for example human contact structures over which dynamic processes such as epidemics take place. A fundamental aspect of real-life networks is…
In real world, the huge amount of temporal data is to be processed in many application areas such as scientific, financial, network monitoring, sensor data analysis. Data mining techniques are primarily oriented to handle discrete features.…
Inspired by cartographic generalization principles, we present a generalization technique for rendering line charts at different sizes, preserving the important semantics of the data at that display size. The algorithm automatically…
We present results from a pilot experiment to measure if machine recommendations can debias human perceptual biases in visualization tasks. We specifically studied the ``pull-down'' effect, i.e., people underestimate the average position of…
