An algorithmic approach to detect generalization in sketch maps from sketch map alignment. [PDF]
PLoS ONESketch maps are valuable tools used across various disciplines including spatial cognition, environmental psychology, and spatial reasoning. A common approach to evaluate sketch maps in research is to align and compare them with metric maps.

Probing mental representations of space through sketch mapping: a scoping review [PDF]
Cognitive ResearchCognitive maps are mental representations of space essential for guiding spatial behavior. To assess the properties of these cognitive maps, sketch mapping has been widely used as a research tool in spatial cognition research. This scoping review aims to

Remembering routes: confronting spatial behaviours and sketch maps in individual and collective contexts [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyThis exploratory study addresses the following question: Is there an explanatory relationship between the chronological sequence in which individuals explore an environment and the way they subsequently draw a sketch map of that same environment?

Digital sketch maps and eye tracking statistics as instruments to obtain insights into spatial cognition [PDF]
Journal of Eye Movement Research, 2018 This paper explores map users’ cognitive processes in learning, acquiring and remembering information presented via screen maps. In this context, we conducted a mixed-methods user experiment employing digital sketch maps and eye tracking. On the one hand,

Invariant spatial information in sketch maps — a study of survey sketch maps of urban areas
Journal of Spatial Information Science, 2015 It is commonly recognized that free-hand sketch maps are influenced by cognitive impacts and therefore sketch maps are incomplete, distorted, and schematized.

Exact Sketch-Based Read Mapping
Algorithms in Bioinformatics (WABI 2023), 2023 AbstractGiven a sequencing read, the broad goal of read mapping is to find the location(s) in the reference genome that have a “similar sequence”. Traditionally, “similar sequence” was defined as having a high alignment score and read mappers were viewed as heuristic solutions to this well-defined problem.
