Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Designers often create visualizations to achieve specific high‐level analytical or communication goals. These goals require people to extract complex and interconnected data patterns. Prior perceptual studies of visualization effectiveness have focused on low‐level tasks, such as estimating statistical quantities, and have recently explored ...

Class Angular Distortion Index for Dimensionality Reduction
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Dimensionality reduction (DR) techniques are often characterized by whether they preserve global, high‐level structures in the data or local, neighborhood structures. This distinction matters in visualization: global methods can obscure clusters while local methods can over‐emphasize them.

Island invertebrate responses to single‐ and multi‐species invasive rodent eradications
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Eradications of rodents on islands are a powerful tool for conservation, but rarely are the responses of invertebrates quantified post‐eradication, despite being the preferred prey of mice. Here we analyzed pre‐ and post‐eradication invertebrate survey results for two sub‐Antarctic islands where mice had recently been eradicated; Antipodes Island where
