Evaluating Colour in Concept Diagrams (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McGrath, S., Blake, A., Stapleton, G., Touloumis, A., Chapman, P., Jamnik, M., & Shams, Z. (2022). Evaluating Colour in Concept Diagrams. In Diagrammatic Representation and Inference: 13th International Conference, Diagrams 2022, Rome, Italy, September

This paper is the first to establish the impact of colour on users' ability to interpret the informational content of concept diagrams, a logic designed for ontology engineering. Motivation comes from results for Euler diagrams, which form a fragment... Read More about Evaluating Colour in Concept Diagrams.

Minimising line segments in linear diagrams is NP-hard (2022)
Journal Article
Chapman, P., Sim, K., & Hao Chen, H. (2022). Minimising line segments in linear diagrams is NP-hard. Journal of Computer Languages, 71, Article 101136. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cola.2022.101136

Linear diagrams have been shown to be an effective method of representing set-based data. Moreover, a number of guidelines have been proven to improve the efficacy of linear diagrams. One of these guidelines is to minimise the number of line segments... Read More about Minimising line segments in linear diagrams is NP-hard.
