Book published– Integrating Artificial Intelligence and Visualization for Visual Knowledge Discovery

13/06/2022/in Allgemein, Book, h_da, Publication, Research/by Kawa Nazemi

Professor Kawa Nazemi edited together with colleagues from the London South Bank University, Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Lisboa, and the Central Washington University enhanced contributions of selected papers of the International Conference on Information Visualisation particularly on the intersection of artificial intelligence and visualization. The book will appear in the series Studies in Computational Intelligence by Springer Nature.

The book “Integrating Artificial Intelligence and Visualization for Visual Knowledge Discovery” is devoted to the emerging field of integrated visual knowledge discovery that combines advances in artificial intelligence/machine learning and visualization/visual analytics. A long-standing challenge of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) is explaining models to humans, especially for live-critical applications like health care. A model explanation is a fundamentally human activity, not only an algorithmic one. As current deep learning studies demonstrate, it makes the paradigm based on the visual methods critically important to address this challenge. In general, visual approaches are critical for discovering explainable high-dimensional patterns in all types in high-dimensional data offering “n-D glasses,” where preserving high-dimensional data properties and relations in visualizations is a major challenge. The current progress opens a fantastic opportunity in this domain.

This book is a collection of 25 extended works of over 70 scholars presented at AI and visual analytics-related symposia at the recent International Information Visualization Conferences with the goal of moving this integration to the next level.  The sections of this book cover integrated systems, supervised learning, unsupervised learning, optimization, and evaluation of visualizations.

The intended audience for this collection includes those developing and using emerging AI/machine learning and visualization methods. Scientists, practitioners, and students can find multiple examples of the current integration of AI/machine learning and visualization for visual knowledge discovery. The book provides a vision of future directions in this domain. New researchers will find here an inspiration to join the profession and to be involved for further development. Instructors in AI/ML and visualization classes can use it as a supplementary source in their undergraduate and graduate classes.

Shahrukh Badar defended his Master Thesis on Process Mining for Workflow-Driven Assistance in Visual Trend Analytics

27/04/2022/in Allgemein, Teaching, Thesis, TU Darmstadt/by Dirk Burkhardt

In his thesis, Shahrukh Badar created process-driven assistance that is applied to the visual trend analytics domain. The goal was, based on previous users interactions and solved tasks, to assist further users in their work. Therefore, a universal visual assistance model was defined and acts also as the main contribution, based on defined interaction event taxonomy. This concept was applied to the Visual Trend Analytics domain on the SciTics reference system. This “SciTics – Science Analytics” is connected with different data sources and provides analysis of scientific documents. The interaction model provides assistance in terms of recommendations, where the user has an option either to apply a recommendation or ignore it. The solution provided in this thesis is model-based and utilizes the potential of Process Mining and Discovery techniques. It is started by creating an event taxonomy by identifying all possible ways of user interactions on the “SciTic – Visual Trend Analytics” web application. Next, enable the “SciTic – Visual Trend Analytics” web application to start logging events chronologically based on predefined taxonomy. Later, these events log is converted into Process Mining log format. Next, it applies the Process Discovery algorithm “Heuristics Miner” on these log data to generate a process model, which shows the overall flow of user interaction along with the frequencies. Later, this process model is used to provide users with recommendations.

Sibgha Nazir defended her Master Thesis on Visual Analytics on Enterprise Reports for Investment and Strategical Analysis

29/03/2022/in Allgemein, Teaching, Thesis, TU Darmstadt/by Dirk Burkhardt

In her thesis, Sibgha Nazir created a visual analytical approach to analyze annual financial reports in the perspective of investors’ interests. The goal of the thesis is to make use of visual analytics for the fundamental analysis of a business to support investors and business decision-makers. The idea is to collect the financial reports, extract the data and feed them to the visual analytics system. Financial reports are PDF documents published by public companies annually and quarterly which are readily available on companies’ websites containing the values of all financial indicators which fully and vividly paint the picture of a companies’ business. The financial indicators in those reports make the basis of fundamental analysis. The thesis focuses on those manually collected reports from the companies’ websites and conceptualizes and implements a pipeline that gathers text and facts from the reports, processes them, and feeds them to a visual analytics dashboard. Furthermore, the thesis uses state-of-the-art visualization tools and techniques to implement a visual analytics dashboard as the proof of concept and extends the visualization interface with interaction capability by giving them options to choose the parameter of their choice allowing the analyst to filter and view the available data. The dashboard fully integrates with the data transformation pipeline to consume the data that has been collected, structured, and processed and aims to display the financial indicators as well as allow the user to display them graphically. It also implements a user interface for manual data correction ensuring continuous data cleansing.

The presented application makes use of state-of-the-art financial analytics and information visualization techniques to enable visual trend analysis. The application is a great tool for investors and business analysts for gaining insights into the business and analyzing historical trends of its earnings and expenses and several other use-cases where financial reports of the business are a primary source of valuable information.

12/03/2021/in Allgemein, h_da, Teaching, Thesis/by Dirk Burkhardt

In his thesis, Irtaza Rasheed implementated a universal name disambiguation approach that considers almost any existing property to identify authors. After an author of a paper is identied, the normalized name writing form on the paper is used to refine the author model and even give an overview about the different writing forms of the author’s name. This can be achieved by first examine the research on Human-Computer Interaction specifically with focus on (Visual) Trend Analysis. Furthermore, a research on different name disambiguation techniques. After that, building a concept and implementing a generalized method to identify author name and affiliation disambiguation while evaluating different properties.

#1 Visual Analytics in Mobility, Transportation and Logistics

Mobility, transportation and logistics are more and more influenced by a variety of indicators such as new technological developments, ecological and economic changes, political decisions and in particular humans’ mobility behavior. These indicators will lead to massive changes in our daily live with regards to mobility, transportation and logistics. New technologies will lead to a different mobility behavior with new constraints. These changes in mobility behavior and logistics require analytical systems to forecast the required information and probably appearing changes. These systems have to consider different perspectives and employ multiple indicators. Visual Analytics provides both, the analytical approaches by including machine learning approaches and interactive visualizations to enable such analytical tasks. In this paper the main indicators for Visual Analytics in the domain of mobility transportation and logistics are discussed and followed by exemplary case studies to illustrate the advantages of such systems. The examples are aimed to demonstrate the benefits of Visual Analytics in mobility.

#2 Process Support and Visual Adaptation to Assist Visual Trend Analytics in Managing Transportation Innovations

In the domain of mobility and logistics, a variety of new technologies and business ideas are arising. Beside technologies that aim on ecologically and economic transportation, such as electric engines, there are also fundamental different approaches like central packaging stations or deliveries via drones. Yet, there is a growing need for analytical systems that enable identifying new technologies, innovations, business models etc. and give also the opportunity to rate those in perspective of business relevance. Commonly adaptive systems investigate only the users’ behavior, while a process-related supports could assist to solve an analytical task more efficient and effective. In this article an approach that enables non-experts to perform visual trend analysis through an advanced process support based on process mining is described. This allow us to calculate a process model based on events, which is the baseline for process support feature calculation. These features and the process model enable to assist non-expert users in complex analytical tasks.

What: Master Thesis – “Process Mining for Workflow-Driven Assistance in Visual Trend Analytics”

Abstract:

In today’s data-driven world, a large amount of data is being generated daily. This data is generated by different sources, such as social networking platforms, industrial machinery, daily transactions, etc. The companies or businesses are not only generating data but also utilizing them to improve their processes, business decisions, etc. There are several applications and tools that help users to analyze this big data in-depth, by providing numerous ways to explore it, including different types of visualization, pivoting, filtering, grouping data, etc. The challenge with such applications is that it creates long and heavy learning curves for users, who need to work with such applications. Many systems are often designed for a specific purpose, and therewith to know how a single system works is not enough. To enable a better work entrance with such an analytical system, a kind of adaptive assistance would be helpful. So, the system would hint the users regarding his previous work and interaction, what next action might be useful. The thesis aims to face this challenge with process-driven assistance that is applied to the visual trend analytics domain. The goal is, based on previous users interactions and solved tasks, to assist further users in their work. Therefore, a universal visual assistance model is defined and acts also as the main contribution, based on defined interaction event taxonomy.

Abstract:

Given the availability of enormous data in today’s time, suitable analysis techniques and graphical tools are required to derive knowledge in order to make this data useful. Scientists and developers have come up with visual analytical systems that combine machine learning technologies, such as text mining with interactive data visualization, to provide fresh insights into the present and future trends. Data visualization has progressed to become a cutting-edge method for displaying and interacting with graphics on a single screen. Using visualizations, decision-makers may unearth insights in minutes, and teams can spot trends and significant outliers in minutes [1]. A vast variety of automatic data analysis methods have been developed during the previous few decades. For investors, researchers, analysts, and decision-makers, these developments are significant in terms of innovation, technology management, and strategic decision-making.

The financial business is only one of many that will be influenced by the habits of the next generation, and it must be on the lookout for new ideas. Using cutting-edge financial analytics tools will, of course, have a significant commercial impact. Visual analytics, when added to the capabilities, can deliver relevant and helpful insights. By collecting financial internal information from different organizations, putting them in one place, and incorporating visual analytics tools, financial analytics software will address crucial business challenges with unprecedented speed, precision, and ease.

The goal of the thesis is to make use of visual analytics for the fundamental analysis of a business to support investors and business decision-makers. The idea is to collect the financial reports, extract the data and feed them to this visual analytics system. Financial reports are PDF documents published by public companies annually and quarterly which are readily available on companies’ websites containing the values of all financial indicators which fully and vividly paint the picture of a companies’ business. The financial indicators in those reports make the basis of fundamental analysis. The thesis focuses on those manually collected reports from the companies’ websites and conceptualizes and implements a pipeline that gathers text and facts from the reports, processes them, and feeds them to a visual analytics dashboard. Furthermore, the thesis uses state-of-the-art visualization tools and techniques to implement a visual analytics dashboard as the proof of concept and extends the visualization interface with interaction capability by giving them options to choose the parameter of their choice allowing the analyst to filter and view the available data.

13/06/2022/in Allgemein, Book, h_da, Publication, Research/by Kawa Nazemi

Professor Kawa Nazemi edited together with colleagues from the London South Bank University, Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Lisboa, and the Central Washington University enhanced contributions of selected papers of the International Conference on Information Visualisation particularly on the intersection of artificial intelligence and visualization. The book will appear in the series Studies in Computational Intelligence by Springer Nature.

The book “Integrating Artificial Intelligence and Visualization for Visual Knowledge Discovery” is devoted to the emerging field of integrated visual knowledge discovery that combines advances in artificial intelligence/machine learning and visualization/visual analytics. A long-standing challenge of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) is explaining models to humans, especially for live-critical applications like health care. A model explanation is a fundamentally human activity, not only an algorithmic one. As current deep learning studies demonstrate, it makes the paradigm based on the visual methods critically important to address this challenge. In general, visual approaches are critical for discovering explainable high-dimensional patterns in all types in high-dimensional data offering “n-D glasses,” where preserving high-dimensional data properties and relations in visualizations is a major challenge. The current progress opens a fantastic opportunity in this domain.

This book is a collection of 25 extended works of over 70 scholars presented at AI and visual analytics-related symposia at the recent International Information Visualization Conferences with the goal of moving this integration to the next level.  The sections of this book cover integrated systems, supervised learning, unsupervised learning, optimization, and evaluation of visualizations.

The intended audience for this collection includes those developing and using emerging AI/machine learning and visualization methods. Scientists, practitioners, and students can find multiple examples of the current integration of AI/machine learning and visualization for visual knowledge discovery. The book provides a vision of future directions in this domain. New researchers will find here an inspiration to join the profession and to be involved for further development. Instructors in AI/ML and visualization classes can use it as a supplementary source in their undergraduate and graduate classes.

Shahrukh Badar defended his Master Thesis on Process Mining for Workflow-Driven Assistance in Visual Trend Analytics

27/04/2022/in Allgemein, Teaching, Thesis, TU Darmstadt/by Dirk Burkhardt

In his thesis, Shahrukh Badar created process-driven assistance that is applied to the visual trend analytics domain. The goal was, based on previous users interactions and solved tasks, to assist further users in their work. Therefore, a universal visual assistance model was defined and acts also as the main contribution, based on defined interaction event taxonomy. This concept was applied to the Visual Trend Analytics domain on the SciTics reference system. This “SciTics – Science Analytics” is connected with different data sources and provides analysis of scientific documents. The interaction model provides assistance in terms of recommendations, where the user has an option either to apply a recommendation or ignore it. The solution provided in this thesis is model-based and utilizes the potential of Process Mining and Discovery techniques. It is started by creating an event taxonomy by identifying all possible ways of user interactions on the “SciTic – Visual Trend Analytics” web application. Next, enable the “SciTic – Visual Trend Analytics” web application to start logging events chronologically based on predefined taxonomy. Later, these events log is converted into Process Mining log format. Next, it applies the Process Discovery algorithm “Heuristics Miner” on these log data to generate a process model, which shows the overall flow of user interaction along with the frequencies. Later, this process model is used to provide users with recommendations.

Abstract:

In today’s data-driven world, a large amount of data is being generated daily. This data is generated by different sources, such as social networking platforms, industrial machinery, daily transactions, etc. The companies or businesses are not only generating data but also utilizing them to improve their processes, business decisions, etc. There are several applications and tools that help users to analyze this big data in-depth, by providing numerous ways to explore it, including different types of visualization, pivoting, filtering, grouping data, etc. The challenge with such applications is that it creates long and heavy learning curves for users, who need to work with such applications. Many systems are often designed for a specific purpose, and therewith to know how a single system works is not enough. To enable a better work entrance with such an analytical system, a kind of adaptive assistance would be helpful. So, the system would hint the users regarding his previous work and interaction, what next action might be useful. The thesis aims to face this challenge with process-driven assistance that is applied to the visual trend analytics domain. The goal is, based on previous users interactions and solved tasks, to assist further users in their work. Therefore, a universal visual assistance model is defined and acts also as the main contribution, based on defined interaction event taxonomy. This concept is applied on the Visual Trend Analytics domain on the SciTic reference system, This “SciTic – Visual Trend Analytics” is connected with different data sources and provides analysis of scientific documents. The interaction model provides assistance in terms of recommendations, where the user has an option either to apply a recommendation or ignore it. The solution provided in this thesis is model-based and utilizes the potential of Process Mining and Discovery techniques. It is started by creating an event taxonomy by identifying all possible ways of user interactions on the “SciTic – Visual Trend Analytics” web application. Next, enable the “SciTic – Visual Trend Analytics” web application to start logging events chronologically based on predefined taxonomy.

Sibgha Nazir defended her Master Thesis on Visual Analytics on Enterprise Reports for Investment and Strategical Analysis

29/03/2022/in Allgemein, Teaching, Thesis, TU Darmstadt/by Dirk Burkhardt

In her thesis, Sibgha Nazir created a visual analytical approach to analyze annual financial reports in the perspective of investors’ interests. The goal of the thesis is to make use of visual analytics for the fundamental analysis of a business to support investors and business decision-makers. The idea is to collect the financial reports, extract the data and feed them to the visual analytics system. Financial reports are PDF documents published by public companies annually and quarterly which are readily available on companies’ websites containing the values of all financial indicators which fully and vividly paint the picture of a companies’ business. The financial indicators in those reports make the basis of fundamental analysis. The thesis focuses on those manually collected reports from the companies’ websites and conceptualizes and implements a pipeline that gathers text and facts from the reports, processes them, and feeds them to a visual analytics dashboard. Furthermore, the thesis uses state-of-the-art visualization tools and techniques to implement a visual analytics dashboard as the proof of concept and extends the visualization interface with interaction capability by giving them options to choose the parameter of their choice allowing the analyst to filter and view the available data. The dashboard fully integrates with the data transformation pipeline to consume the data that has been collected, structured, and processed and aims to display the financial indicators as well as allow the user to display them graphically. It also implements a user interface for manual data correction ensuring continuous data cleansing.

The presented application makes use of state-of-the-art financial analytics and information visualization techniques to enable visual trend analysis. The application is a great tool for investors and business analysts for gaining insights into the business and analyzing historical trends of its earnings and expenses and several other use-cases where financial reports of the business are a primary source of valuable information.

Abstract:

Given the availability of enormous data in today’s time, suitable analysis techniques and graphical tools are required to derive knowledge in order to make this data useful. Scientists and developers have come up with visual analytical systems that combine machine learning technologies, such as text mining with interactive data visualization, to provide fresh insights into the present and future trends. Data visualization has progressed to become a cutting-edge method for displaying and interacting with graphics on a single screen. Using visualizations, decision-makers may unearth insights in minutes, and teams can spot trends and significant outliers in minutes [1]. A vast variety of automatic data analysis methods have been developed during the previous few decades. For investors, researchers, analysts, and decision-makers, these developments are significant in terms of innovation, technology management, and strategic decision-making.

The financial business is only one of many that will be influenced by the habits of the next generation, and it must be on the lookout for new ideas. Using cutting-edge financial analytics tools will, of course, have a significant commercial impact. Visual analytics, when added to the capabilities, can deliver relevant and helpful insights. By collecting financial internal information from different organizations, putting them in one place, and incorporating visual analytics tools, financial analytics software will address crucial business challenges with unprecedented speed, precision, and ease.

The goal of the thesis is to make use of visual analytics for the fundamental analysis of a business to support investors and business decision-makers. The idea is to collect the financial reports, extract the data and feed them to this visual analytics system. Financial reports are PDF documents published by public companies annually and quarterly which are readily available on companies’ websites containing the values of all financial indicators which fully and vividly paint the picture of a companies’ business. The financial indicators in those reports make the basis of fundamental analysis. The thesis focuses on those manually collected reports from the companies’ websites and conceptualizes and implements a pipeline that gathers text and facts from the reports, processes them, and feeds them to a visual analytics dashboard. Furthermore, the thesis uses state-of-the-art visualization tools and techniques to implement a visual analytics dashboard as the proof of concept and extends the visualization interface with interaction capability by giving them options to choose the parameter of their choice allowing the analyst to filter and view the available data. The dashboard fully integrates with the data transformation pipeline to consume the data that has been collected, structured, and processed and aims to display the financial indicators as well as allow the user to display them graphically. It also implements a user interface for manual data correction ensuring continuous data cleansing.

The presented application makes use of state-of-the-art financial analytics and information visualization techniques to enable visual trend analysis. The application is a great tool for investors and business analysts for gaining insights into a business and analyzing historical trends of its earnings and expenses and several other use-cases where financial reports of the business are a primary source of valuable information.

Irtaza Rasheed defended his Master Thesis on Name Disambiguation on Digital Library Data for an Enhanced Profile Analysis in Visual Trend Analytics

12/03/2021/in Allgemein, h_da, Teaching, Thesis/by Dirk Burkhardt

In his thesis, Irtaza Rasheed implementated a universal name disambiguation approach that considers almost any existing property to identify authors. After an author of a paper is identied, the normalized name writing form on the paper is used to refine the author model and even give an overview about the different writing forms of the author’s name. This can be achieved by first examine the research on Human-Computer Interaction specifically with focus on (Visual) Trend Analysis. Furthermore, a research on different name disambiguation techniques. After that, building a concept and implementing a generalized method to identify author name and affiliation disambiguation while evaluating different properties.
