Information Visualization and Visual Analytics

Data and information created by various processes (e.g., simulations) is getting larger, and more and more complex. We use interactive visualization and analysis techniques to facilitate exploration of complex parameter spaces (e.g., to analyze and compare parameters for automotive engineering, reconstruction algorithms, or geometry generators) or unstructured information collections (e.g., annotated digital documents or image collections). Our research focus lies on novel visual encodings and interaction techniques to explore a large amount of abstract data, often in combination with analytical reasoning.
