However, the way data are visualized can influence and drastically change the conclusions people draw using data. The findings around visualization effectiveness are nuanced, and guidelines for effective visualization design depend on the visual channels used, chart types, and analysis tasks. This points to a significant need to understand the intersection of these factors to create optimized visualizations. We need a framework to define this intersection that fills the gap by providing a task-optimized visualization design for better quality and higher decision-making confidence that gives designers objective guidance. A task-optimized visualization design framework strategically integrates visual channels, visualization types, and specific low-level tasks to enhance data interpretation and optimize user task performance. We discuss constructing a visualization framework that considers both human perception for encoding techniques and the task being performed, enabling optimizing visualization design to maximize efficiency. Furthermore, we highlight a task-optimized framework's impact and potential applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":55026,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications","volume":"44 5","pages":"104-113"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142513172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examples include Morton Heilig’s Sensorama simulator and Ivan E. Sutherland’s notion of the Ultimate Display described in the 1960s. In more than 60 years, technological development and scientific knowledge have predominantly focused virtual and extended reality (VR and XR) applications on the sense of sight and hearing. Despite their importance in everyday interaction, the other senses remain on the margins of VR and XR applications. The potential to include additional senses has been acknowledged and extensively explored in the literature. Those who deal with this topic encounter challenges in understanding the functioning mechanism of the human sensorial and perceptive components and creating interfaces capable of communicating through these senses. Last but not least, it is important to design case studies capable of exploiting the potential of this technology and encouraging investors to believe in its development and end users to adopt it once it is ready. These challenges drive the research activities included in this special issue.","PeriodicalId":55026,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications","volume":"76 2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142211882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The core lies in parameterizing the ray-finned fish with curves and optimizing them with textures to fit the input using differentiable rendering, greatly reducing the manual modeling work. It presents advantages over multi-image reconstruction in requiring single image, while state-of-the-art methods suffer from such a scenario to achieve informative reconstruction. Also, our method outputs a polygon mesh, widely compatible with modern graphics hardware and software, thus facilitating further editing. Furthermore, we fine tune the prompts for Stable Diffusion while users can type a name to find high-quality lateral images.

We used one or more line plots, with or without explicitly providing the definition, to see how these variations affect viewers' understanding of a 10-year trend in mass shooting frequency.
