Adaptive Sampling of 3D Spatial Correlations for Focus+Context Visualization.

Visualizing spatial correlations in 3D ensembles is challenging due to the vast amounts of information that need to be conveyed. Memory and time constraints make it unfeasible to pre-compute and store the correlations between all pairs of domain points. We propose the embedding of adaptive correlation sampling into chord diagrams with hierarchical edge bundling to alleviate these constraints.

Visual Analysis of Multi-Parameter Distributions Across Ensembles of 3D Fields.

For an ensemble of 3D multi-parameter fields, we present a visual analytics workflow to analyse whether and which parts of a selected multi-parameter distribution is present in all ensemble members. Supported by a parallel coordinate plot, a multi-parameter brush is applied to all ensemble members to select data points with similar multi-parameter distribution. By a combination of spatial sub-division and a covariance analysis of partitioned sub-sets of data points, a tight partition in multi-parameter space with reduced number of selected data points is obtained.
