Background: It is possible to find many different visual representations of data values in visualizations, it is less common to see visual representations that include uncertainty, especially in visualizations intended for non-technical audiences. Objective: our aim is to rigorously define and evaluate the novel use of visual entropy as a measure of shape that allows us to construct an ordered scale of glyphs for use in representing both uncertainty and value in 2D and 3D environments. Method: We use sample entropy as a numerical measure of visual entropy to construct a set of glyphs using R and Blender which vary in their complexity. Results: A Bradley-Terry analysis of a pairwise comparison of the glyphs shows participants (n=19) ordered the glyphs as predicted by the visual entropy score (linear regression R2 >0.97, p<0.001). We also evaluate whether the glyphs can effectively represent uncertainty using a signal detection method, participants (n=15) were able to search for glyphs representing uncertainty with high sensitivity and low error rates. Conclusion: visual entropy is a novel cue for representing ordered data and provides a channel that allows the uncertainty of a measure to be presented alongside its mean value.

Marching squares (MS) and marching cubes (MC) are widely used algorithms for level-set visualization of scientific data. In this paper, we address the challenge of uncertainty visualization of the topology cases of the MS and MC algorithms for uncert
ain scalar field data sampled on a uniform grid. The visualization of the MS and MC topology cases for uncertain data is challenging due to their exponential nature and the possibility of multiple topology cases per cell of a grid. We propose the topology case count and entropy-based techniques for quantifying uncertainty in the topology cases of the MS and MC algorithms when noise in data is modeled with probability distributions. We demonstrate the applicability of our techniques for independent and correlated uncertainty assumptions. We visualize the quantified topological uncertainty via color mapping proportional to uncertainty, as well as with interactive probability queries in the MS case and entropy isosurfaces in the MC case. We demonstrate the utility of our uncertainty quantification framework in identifying the isovalues exhibiting relatively high topological uncertainty. We illustrate the effectiveness of our techniques via results on synthetic, simulation, and hixel datasets.
Information visualization and visual analytics technology has attracted significant attention from the financial regulation community. In this research, we present regvis.net, a visual survey of regulatory visualization that allows researchers from b
oth the computing and financial communities to review their literature of interest. We have collected and manually tagged more than 80 regulation visualization related publications. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first publication set tailored for regulatory visualization. We have provided a webpage (http://regvis.net) for interactive searches and filtering. Each publication is represented by a thumbnail of the representative system interface or key visualization chart, and users can conduct multi-condition screening explorations and fixed text searches.
As an important method of handling potential uncertainties in numerical simulations, ensemble simulation has been widely applied in many disciplines. Visualization is a promising and powerful ensemble simulation analysis method. However, conventional
visualization methods mainly aim at data simplification and highlighting important information based on domain expertise instead of providing a flexible data exploration and intervention mechanism. Trial-and-error procedures have to be repeatedly conducted by such approaches. To resolve this issue, we propose a new perspective of ensemble data analysis using the attribute variable dimension as the primary analysis dimension. Particularly, we propose a variable uncertainty calculation method based on variable spatial spreading. Based on this method, we design an interactive ensemble analysis framework that provides a flexible interactive exploration of the ensemble data. Particularly, the proposed spreading curve view, the region stability heat map view, and the temporal analysis view, together with the commonly used 2D map view, jointly support uncertainty distribution perception, region selection, and temporal analysis, as well as other analysis requirements. We verify our approach by analyzing a real-world ensemble simulation dataset. Feedback collected from domain experts confirms the efficacy of our framework.
We present a novel privacy preservation strategy for decentralized visualization. The key idea is to imitate the flowchart of the federated learning framework, and reformulate the visualization process within a federated infrastructure. The federatio
n of visualization is fulfilled by leveraging a shared global module that composes the encrypted externalizations of transformed visual features of data pieces in local modules. We design two implementations of federated visualization: a prediction-based scheme, and a query-based scheme. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach with a set of visual forms, and verify its robustness with evaluations. We report the value of federated visualization in real scenarios with an expert review.
Inspired by human visual attention, we introduce a Maximum Entropy Deep Inverse Reinforcement Learning (MEDIRL) framework for modeling the visual attention allocation of drivers in imminent rear-end collisions. MEDIRL is composed of visual, driving,
and attention modules. Given a front-view driving video and corresponding eye fixations from humans, the visual and driving modules extract generic and driving-specific visual features, respectively. Finally, the attention module learns the intrinsic task-sensitive reward functions induced by eye fixation policies recorded from attentive drivers. MEDIRL uses the learned policies to predict visual attention allocation of drivers. We also introduce EyeCar, a new driver visual attention dataset during accident-prone situations. We conduct comprehensive experiments and show that MEDIRL outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods on driving task-related visual attention allocation on the following large-scale driving attention benchmark datasets: DR(eye)VE, BDD-A, and DADA-2000. The code and dataset are provided for reproducibility.
