Visual Encodings for Networks with Multiple Edge Types (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vogogias, T., Archambault, D. W., Bach, B., & Kennedy, J. (2020, October). Visual Encodings for Networks with Multiple Edge Types. Presented at International Conference on Advanced Visual Interfaces, Napkes, Italy

This paper reports on a formal user study on visual encodings of networks with multiple edge types in adjacency matrices. Our tasks and conditions were inspired by real problems in computational biology. We focus on encodings in adjacency matrices, s...

Constructing and Evaluating Visualisation Task Classifications: Process and Considerations (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerracher, N., & Kennedy, J. (2017, June). Constructing and Evaluating Visualisation Task Classifications: Process and Considerations. Presented at EuroVis 2017 Eurographics / IEEE VGTC Conference on Visualization 2017, Barcelona, Spain

Categorising tasks is a common pursuit in the visualisation research community, with a wide variety of taxonomies, typologies, design spaces, and frameworks having been developed over the last three decades. While these classifications are universall... Read More about Constructing and Evaluating Visualisation Task Classifications: Process and Considerations.

Using a task classification in the visualisation design process for task understanding and abstraction: an empirical study (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerracher, N., Kennedy, J., & Chalmers, K. (2018). Using a task classification in the visualisation design process for task understanding and abstraction: an empirical study. In J. Johansson, F. Sadlo, & T. Schreck (Eds.), Proceedings of the 2018 Eurograp

Task classifications are widely purported to be useful in the design process, with various suggestions having been made for their use at the different stages. However, little has been written regarding the actual use of task classifications in these...

MLCut: exploring multi-level cuts in dendrograms for biological data (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vogogias, A., Kennedy, J., Archambault, D., Anne Smith, V., & Currant, H. (2016). MLCut: exploring multi-level cuts in dendrograms for biological data. In C. Turkay, & T. Ruan Wan (Eds.), Computer Graphics and Visual Computing (CGVC). https://doi.org/10.2

Choosing a single similarity threshold for cutting dendrograms is not sufficient for performing hierarchical clustering analysis of heterogeneous data sets. In addition, alternative automated or semi-automated methods that cut dendrograms in multiple... Read More about MLCut: exploring multi-level cuts in dendrograms for biological data.

Telling stories about dynamic networks with graph comics. (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bach, B., Kerracher, N., Hall, K. W., Carpendale, S., Kennedy, J., & Henry Riche, N. (2016). Telling stories about dynamic networks with graph comics. In Proceedings of the ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI'16) (1-13). https://doi

In this paper, we explore graph comics as a medium to communicate changes in dynamic networks. While previous research has focused on visualizing dynamic networks for data exploration, we want to see if we can take advantage of the visual express...

Large-scale Argument Visualization (LSAV) (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khartabil, D., Wells, S., & Kennedy, J. (2016). Large-scale Argument Visualization (LSAV). In Eurographics Conference on Visualization (EuroVis), Posters Track (2016)

Arguments are structures of premises and conclusions that underpin rational reasoning processes. Within complex knowledge domains, especially if they are contentious, argument structures can become large and complex. Visualization tools have been dev...
