TLDR
It is discovered that the state transition information, used to identify macro candidates, characterizes the structural pattern of the macro and can be harnessed as part of the visual design of the corresponding macro glyph and facilitates partial automation and consistency in glyph design applicable to a large set of macro glyphs.Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the creation of 'macros' in workflow visualization as a support tool to increase the efficiency of data curation tasks. We propose computation of candidate macros based on their usage in large collections of workflows in data repositories. We describe an efficient algorithm for extracting macro motifs from workflow graphs. We discovered that the state transition information, used to identify macro candidates, characterizes the structural pattern of the macro and can be harnessed as part of the visual design of the corresponding macro glyph. This facilitates partial automation and consistency in glyph design applicable to a large set of macro glyphs. We tested this approach against a repository of biological data holding some 9,670 workflows and found that the algorithmically generated candidate macros are in keeping with domain expert expectations.read more

Mixed-initiative visual analytics using task-driven recommendations
TL;DR: This paper presents candidate design guidelines and introduces the Active Data Environment (ADE) prototype, a spatial workspace supporting the analytic process via task recommendations invoked by inferences about user interactions within the workspace, enabling users to co-reason with the system about their data in a single, spatial workspace.

Sampling from large graphs

TL;DR: The best performing methods are the ones based on random-walks and "forest fire"; they match very accurately both static as well as evolutionary graph patterns, with sample sizes down to about 15% of the original graph.

Hierarchical Edge Bundles: Visualization of Adjacency Relations in Hierarchical Data
TL;DR: This paper presents a new method for visualizing compound graphs based on visually bundling the adjacency edges, i.e., non-hierarchical edges, together and discusses the results based on an informal evaluation provided by potential users of such visualizations.
