Recent Research Projects

Multi-variate volume visualization

    Recent work in projective techniques coupled with multi-dimensional scaling is enabling new visualization paradigms.  Can we use these mechanisms to enhance various domain science analysis?


Cognitive Metrics in Visualization

    Scientific visualization is unquestionably an enabling technology to scientists in various disciplines.  However, there has been little work done to determine when various rendering techniques should be used to enhance the understanding of the data they represent... more


Interactive Query-by-Example

    Scientists examining data from experiments or simulation often look for specific features of interest within their data.  Much work has been done to extract and highlight features, but what happens when these techniques overlook specific features of interest to domain scientists...?  more
