Agent-based models (ABMs) have been adopted to simulate different kinds of complex
systems, from biological systems to complex coupled human-natural systems (CHANS). In …

The visualization community has developed to date many intuitions and understandings of
how to judge the quality of views in visualizing data. The computation of a visualization's …

This paper provides an overview of published treemap layout algorithms from 1991 to 2019
that were used for information visualization and computational geometry. First, a terminology …

Blood circulation in the human brain is supplied through a network of cerebral arteries. If a
clinician suspects a patient has a stroke or other cerebrovascular condition, they order …

In the biomedical domain, taxonomies organize the acquisition modalities of scientific
images in hierarchical structures. Such taxonomies leverage large sets of correct image …

Tag clouds are widely applied, popular visualization techniques as they illustrate summaries
of textual data in an intuitive, lucid manner. Many layout algorithms for tag clouds have been …

Tools for intuitive visualization of dynamic datasets are highly demanded for capturing
information and revealing potential patterns, especially in understanding the trend of data …

Rectangular layouts, subdivisions of an outer rectangle into smaller rectangles, have many
applications in visualizing spatial information, for instance in rectangular cartograms in …

Computing treemap layouts for time-dependent (dynamic) trees is an open problem in
information visualization. In particular, the constraints of spatial quality (cell aspect ratio) and …
