TLDR
Efficient methods for implementing general non-linear magnification transformations are presented and piecewise linear methods are introduced which allow greater efficiency and expressiveness than their continuous counterparts.Abstract:
This paper presents efficient methods for implementing general non-linear magnification transformations. Techniques are provided for: combining linear and non-linear magnifications, constraining the domain of magnifications, combining multiple transformations, and smoothly interpolating between magnified and normal views. In addition, piecewise linear methods are introduced which allow greater efficiency and expressiveness than their continuous counterparts.read more

Using context information to facilitate processing of commands in a virtual assistant
TL;DR: In this article, a virtual assistant uses context information to supplement natural language or gestural input from a user, which helps to clarify the user's intent and reduce the number of candidate interpretations of user's input, and reduces the need for the user to provide excessive clarification input.
Patent
User interface for providing consolidation and access
TL;DR: In this paper, a userbar is established which includes a plurality of item representations and a magnification function is provided which magnifies items within the userbar when they are proximate the cursor associated with the graphical user interface.

Methods and graphical user interfaces for editing on a multifunction device with a touch screen display
Bas Ording,Kenneth Kocienda,Bradford A. Moore,Marcel van Os,Richard Williamson,Scott Forstall +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a device displays content on a touch screen display and detects input by finger gestures, the device selects content, visually distinguishes the selected content, and/or updates the selected contents based on detected input.

Computational geometry. an introduction
TL;DR: This book offers a coherent treatment, at the graduate textbook level, of the field that has come to be known in the last decade or so as computational geometry.

Generalized fisheye views
TL;DR: This paper explores fisheye views presenting, in turn, naturalistic studies, a general formalism, a specific instantiation, a resulting computer program, example displays and an evaluation.

Computer graphics—principles and practice
TL;DR: These are the short notes for a two hour tutorial on principles and practice of computer graphics and scientific visualization and they cannot completely replace the contents of the tutorial transparencies and slides since restrictions in space and print quality do not permit the inclusion of figures and example images.

Tree-maps: a space-filling approach to the visualization of hierarchical information structures
TL;DR: The tree-map visualization technique makes 100% use of the available display space, mapping the full hierarchy onto a rectangular region in a space-filling manner, which allows very large hierarchies to be displayed in their entirety and facilitates the presentation of semantic information.

A focus+context technique based on hyperbolic geometry for visualizing large hierarchies
TL;DR: The essence of this scheme is to lay out the hierarchy in a uniform way on a hyperbolic plane an d map this plane onto a circular display region that supports a smooth blending between focus and context, as well as continuous redirection of the focus.
