    Abstract Periodically occurring accumulations of events or measured values are present in many time-dependent datasets and can be of interest for analyses. The frequency of such periodic behavior is often not known in advance, making it difficult to detect and tedious to explore. Automated analysis methods exist, but can be too costly for smooth, interactive analysis. We propose a compact visual representation that reveals periodicity by showing a phase histogram for a given period length that can be used standalone or in combination with other linked visualizations. Our approach supports guided, interactive analyses by suggesting other period lengths to explore, which are ranked based on two quality measures. We further describe how the phase can be mapped to visual representations in other views to reveal periodicity there.

    Abstract Temporal action localization aims to identify the boundaries and categories of actions in videos, such as scoring a goal in a football match. Single-frame supervision has emerged as a labor-efficient way to train action localizers as it requires only one annotated frame per action. However, it often suffers from poor performance due to the lack of precise boundary annotations. To address this issue, we propose a visual analysis method that aligns similar actions and then propagates a few user-provided annotations (e.g., boundaries, category labels) to similar actions via the generated alignments. Our method models the alignment between actions as a heaviest path problem and the annotation propagation as a quadratic optimization problem. As the automatically generated alignments may not accurately match the associated actions and could produce inaccurate localization results, we develop a storyline visualization to explain the localization results of actions and their alignments. This visualization facilitates users in correcting wrong localization results and misalignments. The corrections are then used to improve the localization results of other actions. The effectiveness of our method in improving localization performance is demonstrated through quantitative evaluation and a case study.

    Abstract It is difficult to explore large text collections if no or little information is available on the contained documents. Hence, starting analytic tasks on such corpora is challenging for many stakeholders from various domains. As a remedy, recent visualization research suggests to use visual spatializations of representative text documents or tags to explore text collections. With PyramidTags, we introduce a novel approach for summarizing large text collections visually. In contrast to previous work, PyramidTags in particular aims at creating an improved representation that incorporates both temporal evolution and semantic relationship of visualized tags within the summarized document collection. As a result, it equips analysts with a visual starting point for interactive exploration to not only get an overview of the main terms and phrases of the corpus, but also to grasp important ideas and stories. Analysts can hover and select multiple tags to explore relationships and retrieve the most relevant documents. In this work, we apply PyramidTags to hundreds of thousands of web-crawled news reports. Our benchmarks suggest that PyramidTags creates time- and context-aware layouts, while preserving the inherent word order of important pairs.

    Abstract Investigating relationships between variables in multi-dimensional data sets is a common task for data analysts and engineers. More specifically, it is often valuable to understand which ranges of which input variables lead to particular values of a given target variable. Unfortunately, with an increasing number of independent variables, this process may become cumbersome and time-consuming due to the many possible combinations that have to be explored. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to visualize correlations between input variables and a target output variable that scales to hundreds of variables. We developed a visual model based on neural networks that can be explored in a guided way to help analysts find and understand such correlations. First, we train a neural network to predict the target from the input variables. Then, we visualize the inner workings of the resulting model to help understand relations within the data set. We further introduce a new regularization term for the backpropagation algorithm that encourages the neural network to learn representations that are easier to interpret visually. We apply our method to artificial and real-world data sets to show its utility.

    Abstract Keyphrase extraction methods can provide insights into large collections of documents such as social media posts. Existing methods, however, are less suited for the real-time analysis of streaming data, because they are computationally too expensive or require restrictive constraints regarding the structure of keyphrases. We propose an efficient approach to extract keyphrases from large document collections and show that the method also performs competitively on individual documents.

    Abstract Spherical k-Means is frequently used to cluster document collections because it performs reasonably well in many settings and is computationally efficient. However, the time complexity increases linearly with the number of clusters k, which limits the suitability of the algorithm for larger values of k depending on the size of the collection. Optimizations targeted at the Euclidean k-Means algorithm largely do not apply because the cosine distance is not a metric. We therefore propose an efficient indexing structure to improve the scalability of Spherical k-Means with respect to k. Our approach exploits the sparsity of the input vectors and the convergence behavior of k-Means to reduce the number of comparisons on each iteration significantly.

    Abstract Breaking news and first-hand reports often trend on social media platforms before traditional news outlets cover them. The real-time analysis of posts on such platforms can reveal valuable and timely insights for journalists, politicians, business analysts, and first responders, but the high number and diversity of new posts pose a challenge. In this work, we present an interactive system that enables the visual analysis of streaming social media data on a large scale in real-time. We propose an efficient and explainable dynamic clustering algorithm that powers a continuously updated visualization of the current thematic landscape as well as detailed visual summaries of specific topics of interest. Our parallel clustering strategy provides an adaptive stream with a digestible but diverse selection of recent posts related to relevant topics. We also integrate familiar visual metaphors that are highly interlinked for enabling both explorative and more focused monitoring tasks. Analysts can gradually increase the resolution to dive deeper into particular topics. In contrast to previous work, our system also works with non-geolocated posts and avoids extensive preprocessing such as detecting events. We evaluated our dynamic clustering algorithm and discuss several use cases that show the utility of our system.
