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 a comprehensive framework for evaluating line chart smoothing methods under a variety of visual analytics tasks. Line charts are commonly used to visualize a series of data samples. When the number of samples is large, or the…

Increased access to mobile devices motivates the need to design communicative visualizations that are responsive to varying screen sizes. However, relatively little design guidance or tooling is currently available to authors. We contribute…

We study decentralized optimization where multiple agents minimize the average of their (strongly) convex, smooth losses over a communication graph. Convergence of the existing decentralized methods generally hinges on an apriori, proper…

Almost every software system provides configuration options to tailor the system to the target platform and application scenario. Often, this configurability renders the analysis of every individual system configuration infeasible. To…

In the context of IoT deployments, a multitude of devices concurrently require network access to transmit data over a shared communication channel. Employing symmetric strategies can effectively facilitate the collaborative use of the…

The goal of this paper is to propose novel strategies for adaptive learning of signals defined over graphs, which are observed over a (randomly time-varying) subset of vertices. We recast two classical adaptive algorithms in the graph…

Line charts are commonly used to visualize a series of data values. When the data are noisy, smoothing is applied to make the signal more apparent. Conventional methods used to smooth line charts, e.g., using subsampling or filters, such as…

Large language models (LLMs) have traditionally been aligned through one-size-fits-all approaches that assume uniform human preferences, fundamentally overlooking the diversity in user values and needs. This paper introduces a comprehensive…

Dataset scaling, also known as normalization, is an essential preprocessing step in a machine learning pipeline. It is aimed at adjusting attributes scales in a way that they all vary within the same range. This transformation is known to…

Entity alignment has always had significant uses within a multitude of diverse scientific fields. In particular, the concept of matching entities across networks has grown in significance in the world of social science as communicative…

The web serving protocol stack is constantly changing and evolving to tackle technological shifts in networking infrastructure and website complexity. As a result of this evolution, the web serving stack includes a plethora of protocols and…

Clustering algorithms remain valuable tools for grouping and summarizing the most important aspects of data. Example areas where this is the case include image segmentation, dimension reduction, signals analysis, model order reduction,…

Time series visualization plays a crucial role in identifying patterns and extracting insights across various domains. However, as datasets continue to grow in size, visualizing them effectively becomes challenging. Downsampling, which…

Despite the ubiquity of visualization examples published on the web, retargeting existing custom chart implementations to new datasets remains difficult, time-intensive, and tedious. The adaptation process assumes author familiarity with…

Automation of machine learning model development is increasingly becoming an established research area. While automated model selection and automated data pre-processing have been studied in depth, there is, however, a gap concerning…

This position paper outlines a new approach to adapting 3D user interface (UI) layouts given the complex nature of end-user preferences. Current optimization techniques, which mainly rely on weighted sum methods, can be inflexible and…

Robots can use auditory, visual, or haptic interfaces to convey information to human users. The way these interfaces select signals is typically pre-defined by the designer: for instance, a haptic wristband might vibrate when the robot is…

Recommendation systems capable of providing diverse sets of results are a focus of increasing importance, with motivations ranging from fairness to novelty and other aspects of optimizing user experience. One form of diversity of recent…

Much of the alignment tuning literature is organized around optimization objectives, while the construction of alignment data is often treated implicitly. In this survey, we adopt a data centric perspective and reframe alignment tuning as a…
