Proceedings of Symposium on Visual Languages, 2002
We propose a formalisation of visual languages which allows a uniform approach to satisfying the needs of pattern recognition, image generation, and visual reasoning faced in visual human-computer communication. Such needs comprise managing the full screen image as seen on the computer display, handling interpretation of icons even when ambiguous, or ...

Visual music in a visual programming language
Proceedings 1999 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages, 1999Sonnet was designed as a visual language for implementing real-time processes. Early design and development of behavioral components has largely focused on the domain of music programming. However, Sonnet's architecture is well-suited to expressing many kinds of real-time activities. In particular, Sonnet is easily extended with new kinds of data types

Visual similarity in sign language
2008 IEEE 24th International Conference on Data Engineering Workshop, 2008In this paper, we present an algorithm for evaluating the similarity of pairs of signs used in sign language. The proposed algorithm is based on the visual similarity on the sign and compares sequences of static positions of the signing person. The algorithm does not rely on any particular way of obtaining necessary geometric form of signs.

Characterizing visual languages
Proceedings 1991 IEEE Workshop on Visual Languages, 2002A better understanding of the visual character of languages is important in developing one's ability to exploit the human visual system. The author briefly outlines Goodman's (1976) distinction between notational and analog languages, and describes its use in developing the notion of syntactic and semantic density as the defining characteristic of ...

Proceedings. 1997 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages (Cat. No.97TB100180), 2002
The effective use of visual languages requires a precise understanding of their meaning. Moreover it is impossible to prove properties of visual languages like soundness of transformation rules or correctness results without having a formal language definition. Although this sounds obvious, it is surprising that only little work has been done about the

On the pLR parsability of visual languages
Proceedings IEEE Symposia on Human-Centric Computing Languages and Environments (Cat. No.01TH8587), 2002The widespread use of visual languages has motivated the need for grammar-based tools to support designers in the definition and implementation of graphical environments. The effective use of such systems requires efficient parsing techniques. The VLCC system makes use of a suitable LR-like methodology that allows us to efficiently parse visual ...

The development of hierarchical visual languages
Proceedings 10th International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing, 2003The development of a visual language requires a specification of its syntax and semantics and the implementation of a visual environment which embeds it. In the present paper we describe VLCC, a graphical system for the automatic generation of visual programming environments.

Proceeding 2000 IEEE International Symposium on Visual Languages, 2002
XML is becoming one of the most influential standards concerning data exchange and Web presentations. The article presents a visual language for querying and transforming XML data. The language is based on a visual document metaphor and the notion of document patterns.

Visual Language Discrimination in Infancy
Science, 2007This study shows that 4- and 6-month-old infants can discriminate languages (English from French) just from viewing silently presented articulations. By the age of 8 months, only bilingual (French-English) infants succeed at this task. These findings reveal a surprisingly early preparedness for visual language discrimination and highlight infants ...

A language for molecular visualization
IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 1992The features and implementation of Pdbq, a special-purpose, interpreted language based on the C programing language, are described. Pdbq provides data types, control structures, operators, and built-in functions for specifying visualization mappings. The language arose from research into the specification of novel geometries from molecular data. Pdbq's
