“…Procedural modeling is suitable when large numbers of iterations of design, architectures, or blocks which obey certain standardized rules have to be created (Esri 2019). It is suitable for both built and natural environments (Huang et al 2018). However, to achieve the same LOD as hand-modeling, procedural rules would have to be rather complex.…”

“…Spatially, VR can offer experiences beyond constraints of physical space by providing a contextualized and embodied experience across regions, scales or from different perspectives (Dede 2009). Temporally, we can connect immersive experiences to historical information or future projections, moving a user back or forward in time (Ch'ng 2009, Huang et al 2018. We can visualize and analyze ecosystems and climate change scenarios not as distant events but in direct and/or familiar contexts (Sheppard 2012).…”

“…Bruggmann and Fabrikant (2016) propose a GIScience approach to information search and access to visually explore digital text archives typically employed in the humanities. Huang et al (2018) demonstrated the power of unlocking the information contained in historical geographic documents and enhancing them with cutting-edge extended reality technology. When reviewing the conceptual ecology of DH, Poole (2017) suggested that DH covers 10 areas: digitization, crowdsourcing, archives and databases, digital curation, texts, editing, visualization, geospatiality, gaming and code.…”

PurposeThis study aims to update and extend previous efforts gauging the status of the quickly evolving field of digital humanities (DH). Based on a sample of directly relevant DH literature during 2005–2020 from Web of Science, the study conducts a longitudinal examination of the research output, intellectual structures and contributors.Design/methodology/approachThe study applies bibliometric methods, social network analysis and visualization tools to conduct a longitudinal examination.FindingsThe research output and scope of DH topics has grown over time with a widening and deepening field in four major development stages. Through both term frequency and term co-occurrence relationship networks, this study further identifies four major reoccurring topics and themes of DH research: (1) collections and contents; (2) technologies, techniques, theories and methods; (3) collaboration, interdisciplinarity and support and (4) DH evolution. Finally, leading DH research contributors (authors, institutions and nations) are also identified.Originality/valueThis study utilizes a greater number of and richer subject sources than previous efforts to identify the overall intellectual structures of DH research based on key terms from titles, abstracts and author keywords. It expands on previous efforts and furthers our understanding of DH research with more recent DH literature and richer subject sources from the literature.

“…Education and training often benefit from high visual realism for knowledge transfer. Virtual surgery, for example, often uses highly-detailed representations of the body; natural environments [16] [11] and historic architecture [15] visualizations may also benefit from high realism. Certain visual arts, games and scientific visualizations, on the other hand, may benefit from low visual realism taking the forms of stylized arts, symbolization and abstraction.…”

The Effects of Visual Realism on Spatial Memory and Exploration Patterns in Virtual Reality

Understanding the effects of environmental features such as visual realism on spatial memory can inform a human-centered design of virtual environments. This paper investigates the effects of visual realism on object location memory in virtual reality, taking account of individual differences, gaze, and locomotion. Participants freely explored two environments which varied in visual realism, and then recalled the locations of objects by returning the misplaced objects back to original locations. Overall, we did not find a significant relationship between visual realism and object location memory. We found, however, that individual differences such as spatial ability and gender accounted for more variance than visual realism. Gaze and locomotion analysis suggest that participants exhibited longer gaze duration and more clustered movement patterns in the low realism condition. Preliminary inspection further found that locomotion hotspots coincided with objects that showed a significant gaze time difference between high and low visual realism levels. These results suggest that high visual realism still provides positive spatial learning affordances but the effects are more intricate.
