Navigating the Flames: Comparative Analysis of Cremation Practices in the Roman and Early Medieval Periods at Gbely‐Kojatín (SK) and Přítluky (CZ)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cremation became the dominant funerary practice in the Middle Danube Region during the Roman Period (RP) (1st–4th century) and reappeared in the Early Medieval Ages (EMA) (6th/7th–8th century). This study aims to reconstruct differences in cremation conditions from the Gbely‐Kojatín site (Slovakia, RP and EMA) and the Přítluky site (Czech ...

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

FluidMap: Proportional and Spatially Consistent Layout Enrichments in Multidimensional Projections

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
FluidMap faithfully represents the frequency of an attribute and preserves spatial consistency. Current space‐filling methods over‐ or under‐represent attribute categories (i.e., all Voronoi‐based methods), sacrifice spatial consistency (i.e., Nmap) or both (i.e., Voronoi‐MWα).

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

BloomTree: Dynamic Coloring Techniques for Exploring Deep and Wide Tree Structures

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces BloomTree, an interactive Sunburst system for visualizing massive hierarchical datasets, such as the Tree of Life. Traditional static color schemes fail to maintain perceptual distinguishability when applied to millions of nodes, and managing the full tree in memory is computationally costly.
