SeqCausal is an interactive visual analysis system for exploration and interpretation of the discovered causal relationships in event sequence data. By zhuochen, Shunan Guo, Nan Chen, Daniel Weiskopf, David Gotz, @VNanCao. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2009.00219 #ieeevis2020 #ieeevis

Calliope is an intelligent system designed for automatically generating visual data stories from a spreadsheet. For more details please visit: datacalliope.github.io Danqing Shi threemany Fuling Sun @VNanCao #ieeevis

AutoClips is an automatic approach that generates data videos directly from a sequence of data facts. For more details please visit: autoclips.idvxlab.com. By Danqing Shi, Fuling Sun, threemany, Xingyu Lan, David Gotz, NanCao

My students are looking for PAIRS of participants for a study to evaluate a new videoconferencing tool that we have developed. If you are interested, bring a friend to participate the study! Or help spread the words!

Text might be the most neglected part of #dataviz. We talk a lot about how the right chart type and colors can improve visualizations – but not enough about how to use words well. So I wrote about that in my latest article: blog.datawrapper.de/text-in-data-v…

I'm recruiting 2 Ph.D. students and 2 interns UC San Diego! Our group builds systems to protect users' privacy from big data technologies. I'm looking for students with a background and/or interest in HCI, mobile computing, security & privacy, Database, PL, and SE. RT appreciated!

My lab at UCSD is admitting PhD students! We bridge cognition and computation to augment human creativity and productivity, especially by leveraging natural language, AI, and VR. Learn more at creativity.ucsd.edu, and apply via tinyurl.com/ucsdcogsphd by Dec 1! Come join us!

Attention all researchers and students who need to read survey papers! What do you think about reading them? Any challenges you encountered? Fill in the form and tell us how you feel and what you wish towards a better reading experience of survey papers: forms.gle/JnarS3uW7Jbq8M…

Console logs are handy for debugging and inspecting code. However, it’s hard for programmers to track and make sense of them - long interleaved stream, deep data structures, numbers without context… Log-it #CHI2023 is to help! w/ interactive, structured, and visualized logs 🧵

Creating an animated data story is tedious and fragmented. Our #CHI2023 paper presents DataParticles - a language-driven system for visually exploring, reasoning and communicating data insights. Shout out to my collaborators Haijun Xia Jane E Zhu-Tian Chen.

Do you want to learn about cool topics using AI?! And receive $30 USD Amazon.com gift for it? Sign up to participate in our 1.5 hour study where we explore new interfaces for interacting with AI! Sign up here: forms.gle/V8iwcZXdeDyTed…

Happy to share that our work (also my first paper) received an Honorable Mention #CHI2023 Huge thanks to my amazing collaborator Fuling Sun, advisor Haijun Xia, and the entire Creativity Lab creativity.ucsd.edu/team. Grateful and proud to be part of such a supportive community

Stop reading the text !!! Have a graphic dialogue with OpenAI’s #GPT4 with #Graphologue. It turns GPT4-generated text into interactive node-link diagrams in real-time. New Human-Computer Interaction #HCI research makes #AI easier to use. More at creativity.ucsd.edu/ai

What if #ChatGPT were 3D? Structure #GPT4's responses in 3D with #Sensecape to better understand large amounts of text. New Human-Computer Interaction #HCI research makes #AI easier to use. More at creativity.ucsd.edu/ai.

My first in-person CHI! See you soon and come join our party! #CHI2023

I am hiring PhDs in VIS/HCI for Fall 2024 at UMN Computer Science & Engineering! If you're interested in human-AI systems, especially intelligent UI in AR, VIS agents, or Nerf-based interactive systems, please consider applying. See more great VIS folks: vis-phd-positions.netlify.app RT/DM appreciated!
