Information visualization is a research area that focuses on making structures and content of large and complex data sets visually understandable and interactively analyzable. The goal of information visualization tools and techniques is to increase our ability to gain insight and make decisions for many types of datasets, tasks, and analysis scenarios. With the increase in size and complexity of data sets today, the research area of information visualization increasingly gains in importance and recognition. In this talk I will present principles of data representation and interaction and introduce a number of  existing applications, tools, and techniques and show how they can be applied to questions in statistics and statistical learning.

1.2 Information Visualization: An Introduction to the Field and Applications for Statistics (Petra Isenberg)

Hi Folks! We are back after a relaxing summer with a brand new episode! We have Petra Isenberg, from the Aviz team at INRIA (we’ve had other guests from the same lab in the past) to talk about visualization on non-standard devices and environments. Yes, stuff like display walls, surfaces, tabletops, and people collaborating around them. It feels like the future is here and there’s a ton of potentially interesting applications for visualization! Petra gives us hints about what works and what does not work, what the research says, what has been tried already, and what needs to be explored, etc. She also gives practical recommendations at the end about how to start doing visualization on these devices. Really cool stuff! Take care, Enrico &amp; Mo. — Chapters  00:00 Back from summer break 02:41 Our guest today: Petra Isenberg 05:59 Moving beyond the desktop 11:55 New challenges in collaborative settings 22:25 Interactions with very large screens 38:14 Practical use and how to get started 48:53 More resources  — Links and papers:  Petra’s Web Site: http://petra.isenberg.cc/ Surface work from Moritz  http://mace-project.eu/maeve/ http://max-planck-research-networks.net   Statusboard Bezerianos, Anastasia, and Petra Isenberg. “Perception of visual variables on tiled wall-sized displays for information visualization applications.“Visualization and Computer Graphics, IEEE Transactions on 18.12 (2012): 2516-2525.
