论文摘要
信息可视化的优化是耗时且昂贵的。为了减少这一点,我们提出了基于以用户为中心的设计的现有优化方法的改进,专注于可读性,可理解性和用户满意度作为优化目标。这些更改包括(1)对用户界面和表示形式的单独优化,(2)对表示形式进行完全自动化的评估,以及(3)定性用户研究,用于同时创建和评估接口变体。根据这些结果,我们能够以有效的方式找到信息可视化的局部最佳。
The optimization of information visualizations is time consuming and expensive. To reduce this we propose an improvement of existing optimization approaches based on user-centered design, focusing on readability, comprehensibility, and user satisfaction as optimization goals. The changes comprise (1) a separate optimization of user interface and representation, (2) a fully automated evaluation of the representation, and (3) qualitative user studies for simultaneously creating and evaluating interface variants. On the basis of these results we are able to find a local optimum of an information visualization in an efficient way.
