Visual objects in context

Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2004
We see the world in scenes, where visual objects occur in rich surroundings, often embedded in a typical context with other related objects. How does the human brain analyse and use these common associations? This article reviews the knowledge that is available, proposes specific mechanisms for the contextual facilitation of object recognition, and ...

Mathematical Induction in a Visual Context

Interactive Learning Environments, 1992
As long as algebra and geometry proceeded along separate paths, their advance was slow and their applications limited. But when these sciences joined company, they drew from each other fresh vitality and thenceforward marched on at a rapid pace toward perfection.

Program comprehension by visualization in contexts

International Conference on Software Maintenance, 2002. Proceedings., 2003
To make program comprehension more effective, the analyst needs high-level information about the software under investigation, in particular information at the structure and the design levels. Visualization in contexts allows the analyst to investigate software in terms of various contexts at different levels of abstraction and to form a variety of ...

A framework for focus+context visualization

Proceedings 1999 IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization (InfoVis'99), 2003
This paper aims to give a systematic account of focus+context visualization techniques, i.e. visualizations which aim to give users integrated visual access to details and context in a data set. We introduce the notion that there are different orders of information visualization with focus+context being a second-order visualization and provide a formal

Space and time in visual context

Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2007
No sensory stimulus is an island unto itself; rather, it can only properly be interpreted in light of the stimuli that surround it in space and time. This can result in entertaining illusions and puzzling results in psychological and neurophysiological experiments.

Multiperspective Focus+Context Visualization

IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2016
Occlusions are a severe bottleneck for the visualization of large and complex datasets. Conventional images only show dataset elements to which there is a direct line of sight, which significantly limits the information bandwidth of the visualization.

Distributed context-aware visualization

2011 IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications Workshops (PERCOM Workshops), 2011
We present a visualization framework integrated in a context-aware system that uses a common underlying stream processing middleware for tight integration of data accessing, processing, and visualization. Context-aware systems are often realized on mobile devices that do not have the computational power to perform complex tasks.

Adaptation in the Context of Explanatory Visualization

2008
Explanatory visualization is a promising approach that has been used in many tutoring systems. This paper presents an attempt to assess the value of adaptation in the context of explanatory visualization. It shows that a system employing a user model and tracking users' progress gives students an opportunity to interact with larger amount of material ...

Visual-Context Boosting for Eye Detection

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, Part B (Cybernetics), 2010
Eye detection plays an important role in many practical applications. This paper presents a novel two-step scheme for eye detection. The first step models an eye by a newly defined visual-context pattern (VCP), and the second step applies semisupervised boosting for precise detection. VCP describes both the space and appearance relations between an eye

Focus+Context Visualization with Distortion Minimization

IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2008
The need to examine and manipulate large surface models is commonly found in many science, engineering, and medical applications. On a desktop monitor, however, seeing the whole model in detail is not possible. In this paper, we present a new, interactive Focus+Context method for visualizing large surface models.
