Visual metaphors for interacting with databases
ACM SIGCHI Bulletin, 1995The need for better human-computer interaction (HCI) has been widely recognized and discussed, even in the database area. It is generally accepted that the quality of the interaction mainly depends on the interface characteristics. How does one recognize "good" interfaces? The use of a suitable metaphor is crucial.

Whenever we think about the world – including its concrete and abstract entities – we typically see a series of so-called mental images in front of our eyes that aid us in everyday problem solving and navigating ourselves in the world. Visual metaphors, similarly to their linguistic counterparts, largely build on such images.

Visual metaphors to enhance hypermedia
1999 IEEE International Conference on Information Visualization (Cat. No. PR00210), 2003The paper argues that whilst hypermedia systems potentially have a major role to play in education, there is the danger that they tend to engender cognitive and navigational overhead in their users, which in turn detracts from their educational value.

Toward the operationalization of visual metaphor
Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, 2017Many successful digital interfaces employ visual metaphors to convey features or data properties to users, but the characteristics that make a visual metaphor effective are not well understood. We used a theoretical conception of metaphor from cognitive linguistics to design an interactive system for viewing the citation network of the corpora of ...

Primary metaphors and monomodal visual metaphors
Journal of Pragmatics, 2011Grady's Primary Metaphor Theory has focused almost exclusively on verbal corpora. Even though the possibility of non-verbal expression is considered, there is very little research on the matter. In order to study the human mind, there is no doubt that the information given by verbal language is critical, but it is also necessary to analyze other ...

Metaphor has recently been reconceptualised as a fundamental part of the human conceptual system. It can hence be expressed in language but also in other modalities and media of communication, including gesture and body language, sound and music, and film and visuals. In spite of this theoretical landslide, however, the wide range of nonverbal metaphor

Using a history documentary ‘The Kinta Story (1949)’, this article explores the ‘grammar’ of visual metaphor. Numerous images can be found in history documentary, while many more are being planned, which can be accessed by people all around the world. These images technically represent producers’ ideas.

Dynamic Graph Visualization with Multiple Visual Metaphors
Proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Visual Information Communication and Interaction, 2015Visualizing dynamic graphs is challenging due to the many data dimensions to be displayed such as graph vertices and edges with their attached weights or attributes and the additional time dimension. Moreover, edge directions with multiplicities and the graph topology are also important inherent features.
