Evaluating the Impact of Clutter in Euler Diagrams. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alqadah, M., Stapleton, G., Howse, J., & Chapman, P. (2014, July). Evaluating the Impact of Clutter in Euler Diagrams

Euler diagrams, used to visualize data and as a basis for visual languages, are an effective representation of information, but they can become cluttered. Previous research established a measure of Euler diagram clutter, empirically shown to correspo... Read More about Evaluating the Impact of Clutter in Euler Diagrams..

Visualizing Sets: An Empirical Comparison of Diagram Types. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chapman, P., Stapleton, G., Rodgers, P., Micallef, L., & Blake, A. (2014, July). Visualizing Sets: An Empirical Comparison of Diagram Types. Presented at 8th International Conference on Theory and Application of Diagrams: Diagrams 2014, Melbourne, VIC, Australia

There are a range of diagram types that can be used to visualize
sets. However, there is a significant lack of insight into which is the
most effective visualization. To address this knowledge gap, this paper empirically evaluates four diagram type... Read More about Visualizing Sets: An Empirical Comparison of Diagram Types..

The design space of temporal graph visualisation. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerracher, N., Kennedy, J., & Chalmers, K. (2014, June). The design space of temporal graph visualisation. Presented at 8th Eurographics Conference on Visualization (EuroVis '14)

This paper presents our work in mapping the design space of techniques for temporal graph visualisation. We identify two independent dimensions upon which the techniques can be classified: graph structural encoding and temporal encoding. Based on the...

Comparing Multi-label Classification with Reinforcement Learning for Summarisation of Time-series Data (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gkatzia, D., Hastie, H., & Lemon, O. (2014, June). Comparing Multi-label Classification with Reinforcement Learning for Summarisation of Time-series Data. Presented at The 52nd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, Baltimore

We present a novel approach for automatic report generation from time-series data, in the context of student feedback generation. Our proposed methodology treats content selection as a multi-label (ML)
classification problem, which takes as input ti... Read More about Comparing Multi-label Classification with Reinforcement Learning for Summarisation of Time-series Data.

Social Implications of Crowdsourcing in Rural Scotland (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vasantha, G., Corney, J., Acur, N., Lynn, A., Jagadeesan, A., Smith, M., & Agrawal, A. (2014, June). Social Implications of Crowdsourcing in Rural Scotland. Presented at International Conference on Advances in Social Science, Economics and Management Study - SEM 2014, London, United Kingdom

Various surveys mentioned that the commercial benefits of Internet crowdsourcing are reaped largely by people located in metro areas and smaller cities. The impact of crowdsourcing on the rural population is questionable. The aim of this research is... Read More about Social Implications of Crowdsourcing in Rural Scotland.

Towards crowdsourcing spatial manufacturing tasks from rural India (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vasantha, G., Corney, J., Jagadeeshan, A., Lynn, A., Acur Bakir, N., Smith, M., & Agrawal, A. (2014, September). Towards crowdsourcing spatial manufacturing tasks from rural India. Presented at 12th International Conference on Manufacturing Research, Southampton, UK

Many tasks involving production software that involve spatial reasoning can only produce "good" rather than optimum solutions. It is frequently possible for humans to improve on algorithmically generated solutions computed by CAD/CAM software. The th...
