Continuous Levels-of-Detail and Visual Abstraction for Seamless Molecular Visualization
2014
Computer graphics forum (Print)
Molecular visualization is often challenged with rendering of large molecular structures in real time. We introduce a novel approach that enables us to show even large protein complexes. ...
The rendering performance is evaluated on series of molecules of varying atom counts. ...
Acknowledgements We thank Nathalie Reuter for providing the MD simulation data sets, David Goodsell and Helwig Hauser for giving us the necessary feedback for the overall visualization. ...

Time-oriented Cartographic Treemaps for Visualization of Public Healthcare Data
[article]
2017
Computer Graphics and Visual Computing
Cartographic treemaps offer a way to explore and present hierarchical multi-variate data that combines the space-efficient advantages of treemaps for the display of hierarchical data together with relative ...
We design, implement and compare a range of visual layout options highlighting advantages and disadvantage of each. ...
Hierarchical indicates a type of hierarchical data. Space-filling indicates how well the output visualization fills the screen. ...
