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.

BayesPiles: Visualisation Support for Bayesian Network Structure Learning (2018)
Journal Article
Vogogias, A., Kennedy, J., Archambault, D., Bach, B., Smith, V. A., & Currant, H. (2018). BayesPiles: Visualisation Support for Bayesian Network Structure Learning. ACM transactions on intelligent systems and technology, 10(1), Article 5. https://doi.org/10.1145/3230623

We address the problem of exploring, combining and comparing large collections of scored, directed networks for understanding inferred Bayesian networks used in biology. In this feld, heuristic algorithms explore the space of possible network solutio... Read More about BayesPiles: Visualisation Support for Bayesian Network Structure Learning.

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, September). MLCut: exploring multi-level cuts in dendrograms for biological data. Presented at Computer Graphics & Visual Computing (CGVC) 2016

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, May). Telling stories about dynamic networks with graph comics. Presented at CHI 16

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... Read More about Telling stories about dynamic networks with graph comics..

Hierarchical Clustering with Multiple-Height Branch-Cut Applied to Short Time-Series Gene Expression Data (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vogogias, A., Kennedy, J., & Archambault, D. (2016, July). Hierarchical Clustering with Multiple-Height Branch-Cut Applied to Short Time-Series Gene Expression Data. Presented at Eurovis 2016

Rigid adherence to pre-specified thresholds and static graphical representations can lead to incorrect decisions on merging of clusters. As an alternative to existing automated or semi-automated methods, we developed a visual analytics approach for p...
