    Topic: Seeking Patterns of Visual Pattern Discovery for Knowledge Building

    Time: Jun. 16, 2022 19:00-20:30 (China Standard Time)

    Abstract: Currently, the methodological and technical developments in visual analytics, as well as the existing theories, are not sufficiently grounded by empirical studies that can provide an understanding of the processes of visual data analysis, analytical reasoning and derivation of new knowledge by humans. We conducted an exploratory empirical study in which participants analysed complex and data-rich visualisations by detecting salient visual patterns, translating them into conceptual information structures and reasoning about those structures to construct an overall understanding of the analysis subject. Eye tracking and voice recording were used to capture this process. We analysed how the data we had collected match several existing theoretical models intended to describe visualisation-supported reasoning, knowledge building, decision making or use and development of mental models.

    Speaker Bio: Natalia Andrienko is a lead scientist at Fraunhofer Institute for Intelligent Analysis and Information Systems and part-time professor at City University London. Results of her research have been published in two monographs, ”Exploratory Analysis of Spatial and Temporal Data: a Systematic Approach” (2006) and ”Visual Analytics of Movement” (2013). She is editorial board member of International Journal of Geographical Information Science and International Journal of Cartography.
