  1. Visual Information Seeking:Tight Coupling of Dynamic Query Filters with Starfield Displays C. Ahlberg & B. Shneiderman (1994) David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  2. Goal: Support Browsing • Rapid filtering • Progressive refinement • Continuous reformulation of goals • Visual scanning David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  3. Principles ofDirect Manipulation • Visual representation of the world in action • Rapid, incremental, and reversible actions • Selection by pointing • Immediate and continuous display of results David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  4. Visual Information Seeking Interaction Methods • Dynamic Query Filters • Starfield Displays • Tight Coupling David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  5. Dynamic Query Filters • Sliders & buttons used to reduce items in result set • Dynamic HomeFinder • Dynamic Periodic Table David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  6. Dynamic HomeFinder David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  7. Dynamic Periodic Table of Elements David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  8. Dynamic Query Filters • Alphaslider for selection of text items David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  9. Starfield Displays • Useful when no natural mapping exists • Scatterplot + Selection + Zooming David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  10. Tight Coupling • Interface design principles • Reveal the software state • Constrains user from erroneous or useless actions • Comprehensible & consistent affordances • Rapid, incremental, reversible interactions • Continuous display • Output-is-input • Progressive refinement • Details on demand David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  11. FilmFinder David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  12. FilmFinder David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  13. FilmFinder David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  14. Spotfire • Founded by Ahlberg in 1996 • Provides “interactive, visual data analytics applications and services” David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  15. Spotfire David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization

  16. Cited By • Enhanced Dynamic Queries via Movable FiltersFishkin & Stone (1995) • Starfield displays • “Magic Lenses” allow: • More complex queries • Display of missing information • Eventually, fuzzy matching David Sturtz | INFO 780 Information Visualization
