In recent years, a large number of research efforts aimed at the development of machine learning models to predict complex spatial-temporal mobility patterns and their impact on road traffic and infrastructure. However, the utility of these models is often diminished due to the lack of accessible user interfaces to view and analyse prediction results. In this paper, we present the Traffic Analytics Dashboard ( TA-Dash), an interactive dashboard that enables the visualisation of complex spatial-temporal urban traffic patterns. We demonstrate the utility of TA-Dash at the example of two recently proposed spatial-temporal models for urban traffic and urban road infrastructure analysis. In particular, the use cases include the analysis, prediction and visualisation of the impact of planned special events on urban road traffic as well as the analysis and visualisation of structural dependencies within urban road networks. The lightweight TA-Dash dashboard aims to address non-expert users involved in urban traffic management and mobility service planning. The TA-Dash builds on a flexible layer-based architecture that is easily adaptable to the visualisation of new models.

The performance of soccer players is one of most discussed aspects by many actors in the soccer industry: from supporters to journalists, from coaches to talent scouts. Unfortunately, the dashboards available online provide no effective way to compare the evolution of the performance of players or to find players behaving similarly on the field. This paper describes the design of a web dashboard that interacts via APIs with a performance evaluation algorithm and provides graphical tools that allow the user to perform many tasks, such as to search or compare players by age, role or trend of growth in their performance, find similar players based on their pitching behavior, change the algorithms parameters to obtain customized performance scores. We also describe an example of how a talent scout can interact with the dashboard to find young, promising talents.
The outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has swept across more than 180 countries and territories since late January 2020. As a worldwide emergency response, governments have taken various measures and implemented policies, such as self-quarantine, travel restrictions, work from home, and regional lockdown, to control the rapid spread of this epidemic. The common intention of these countermeasures is to restrict human mobility because COVID-19 is a highly contagious disease that is spread by human-to-human transmission. Medical experts and policy makers have expressed the urgency of being able to effectively evaluate the effects of human restriction policies with the aid of big data and information technology. Thus, in this study, based on big human mobility data and city POI data, we designed an interactive visual analytics system named EpiMob (Epidemic Mobility). The system interactively simulates the changes in human mobility and the number of infected people in response to the implementation of a certain restriction policy or combination of policies (e.g., regional lockdown, telecommuting, screening). Users can conveniently designate the spatial and temporal ranges for different mobility restriction policies, and the result reflecting the infection situation under different policies is dynamically displayed and can be flexibly compared. We completed multiple case studies of the largest metropolitan area in Japan (i.e., Greater Tokyo Area) and conducted interviews with domain experts to demonstrate that our system can provide illustrative insight by measuring and comparing the effects of different human mobility restriction policies for epidemic control.
Financial regulatory agencies are struggling to manage the systemic risks attributed to negative economic shocks. Preventive interventions are prominent to eliminate the risks and help to build a more resilient financial system. Although tremendous efforts have been made to measure multi-risk severity levels, understand the contagion behaviors and other risk management problems, there still lacks a theoretical framework revealing what and how regulatory intervention measurements can mitigate systemic risk. Here we demonstrate regshock, a practical visual analytical approach to support the exploration and evaluation of financial regulation measurements. We propose risk-island, an unprecedented risk-centered visualization algorithm to help uncover the risk patterns while preserving the topology of financial networks. We further propose regshock, a novel visual exploration and assessment approach based on the simulation-intervention-evaluation analysis loop, to provide a heuristic surgical intervention capability for systemic risk mitigation. We evaluate our approach through extensive case studies and expert reviews. To our knowledge, this is the first practical systemic method for the financial network intervention and risk mitigation problem; our validated approach potentially improves the risk management and control capabilities of financial experts.
State-of-the-art open network visualization tools like Gephi, KeyLines, and Cytoscape are not suitable for studying street networks with thousands of roads since they do not support simultaneously polylines for edges, navigable maps, GPU-accelerated rendering, interactivity, and the means for visualizing multivariate data. The present paper presents Dash Sylvereye: a new Python library to produce interactive visualizations of primal street networks on top of tiled web maps to fill this gap. Dash Sylvereye can render large street graphs in commodity computers by exploiting WebGL for GPU acceleration. Dash Sylvereye also provides convenient functions to easily import OpenStreetMap street topologies obtained with the OSMnx library. Thanks to its integration with the Dash framework, Dash Sylvereye can be used to develop web dashboards around temporal and multivariate street data by coordinating the various elements of a Dash Sylvereye visualization with other plotting and UI components provided by Dash. We conduct experiments to assess the performance of Dash Sylvereye on a commodity computer in terms of animation CPU time and frames per second. To further illustrate the features of Dash Sylvereye, we also describe a web dashboard application that exploits Dash Sylvereye for the analysis of a SUMO vehicle traffic simulation.
The first responder community has traditionally relied on calls from the public, officially-provided geographic information and maps for coordinating actions on the ground. The ubiquity of social media platforms created an opportunity for near real-time sensing of the situation (e.g. unfolding weather events or crises) through volunteered geographic information. In this article, we provide an overview of the design process and features of the Social Media Analytics Reporting Toolkit (SMART), a visual analytics platform developed at Purdue University for providing first responders with real-time situational awareness. We attribute its successful adoption by many first responders to its user-centered design, interactive (geo)visualizations and interactive machine learning, giving users control over analysis.
