چکیده

Many recently developed information visualization techniques are radial variants of originally Cartesian visualizations. Almost none of these radial variants have been evaluated with respect to their benefits over their original visualizations. In this work we compare a radial and a Cartesian variant of a visualization tool for sequences of transactions in information hierarchies. The Timeline Trees (TLT) approach uses a Cartesian coordinate system to represent both the hierarchy and the sequence of transactions whereas the TimeRadarTrees (TRT) technique is the radial counterpart which makes use of a radial tree, as well as circle slices and sectors to show the sequence of transactions. For the evaluation we use both quantitative as well as qualitative evaluation methods including eye tracking.

Comparison of radial and Cartesian imaging techniques for MR coronary angiography.

BACKGROUND Magnetic resonance coronary angiography (MRCA) has traditionally been performed using a Cartesian k-space data acquisition scheme. Radial k-space sampling is known to be less sensitive to motion artifacts. Thus, potential improvements may be achieved with radial k-space data acquisition using steady state free precession (SSFP) techniques. We directly compared SSFP three-dimensional ...

Temporal Visualization of Boundary-based Geo-information Using Radial Projection

This work is concerned with a design study by an interdisciplinary team on visualizing a 10-year record of seasonal and inter-annual changes in frontal position (advance/retreat) of nearly 200 marine terminating glaciers in Greenland. Whilst the spatiotemporal nature of the raw data presents a challenge to develop a compact and intuitive visual design, the focus on coastal boundaries provides a...

Background: Aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiological long-term outcomes following operativetreatment of comminuted radial head fractures using 1) primary radial head resection arthroplasty, 2) acute radial headresection, or 3) necessary secondary prosthetic removal. Additionally, we evaluated complex radial head fracturescombined with elbow dislocation and verified the hyp...

3D MRI-guided Passive Catheter Tracking and Visualization using HYPR-based Techniques

INTRODUCTION Catheter tracking and visualization require both good spatial and temporal resolution. Achieving simultaneously both high temporal and spatial resolution is extremely difficult with current methods that use Cartesian k-space acquisition employing phase encoding. To date, passive device tracking and visualization techniques have typically been limited to two dimensions [1-2]. This i...
