Forecasting software visualizations: an explorative study
نویسندگان
چکیده
A qualitative explorative evaluation considered the effects of six visualization interfaces of sales forecasting systems on 60 university students. The study builds on earlier research from the domain of business forecasting in supply chain industries. The evaluation generates exemplar interfaces derived from the theoretical framework and task analysis of interviews with 20 expert users and designers of forecasting systems. The implications for information visualization and interaction design are discussed.

Concurrent software architectures for exploratory data analysis
Decades ago, increased volume of data made manual analysis obsolete and prompted the use of computational tools with interactive user interfaces and rich palette of data visualizations. Yet their classic, desktop-based architectures can no longer cope with the ever-growing size and complexity of data. Next-generation systems for explorative data analysis will be developed on client–server archi...
متن کاملTowards Visual EAM Analytics: Explorative Research Study with Master Students
Enterprise Architectures (EA) consists of many architecture elements, which stand in manifold relationships to each other. Therefore Architecture Analysis is important and very difficult for stakeholders. Due changing an architecture element has impacts on other elements different stakeholders are involved. In practice EAs are often analyzed using visualizations. This article aims at contributi...
متن کاملMathematical Model of Economic Forecasting and Analysis of the Market Competitive Mechanism
The mathematical models of forecasting depend upon the managers conception regarding the actions development for long – term forecasting or for short – term forecasting. To this end, we distinguish two directions: an explorative one and a normative one. From the point of view of the investigating way, the methods and models of forecasting can be synthetic (aggregated) and morphologic, with a hi...
متن کاملDescribing Locations Using Tags and Images: Explorative Pattern Mining in Social Media
This paper presents an approach for explorative pattern mining in social media for describing image media based on tagging information and collaborative geo-reference annotations. We utilize pattern mining techniques for obtaining sets of tags that are specific for the specified point, landmark, or region of interest. Next, we show how these candidate patterns can be presented and visualized fo...
متن کاملKvik: three-tier data exploration tools for flexible analysis of genomic data in epidemiological studies [version 1; referees: 2 approved with reservations]
Kvik is an open-source system that we developed for explorative analysis of functional genomics data from large epidemiological studies. Creating such studies requires a significant amount of time and resources. It is therefore usual to reuse the data from one study for several research projects. Often each project requires implementing new analysis code, integration with specific knowledge bas...
