“…Another possible approach makes use of case-based representations to support novices. Here, visualizations are developed on the basis of the user's familiarity with certain data and also on the past experiences of comparable user groups (Freyne & Smyth, 2010). In a similar way, the provision of visual CC: Creative Commons License, 2014.…”

Information visualization offers multiple methods to make sense of complex data by graphic representations. Complementing verbal representations, they show rich potential to support cognition and communication in numerous areas of application, including the field of political communication and education. Yet – despite a strong increase in options with regard to accessibility of data, tools, and methods – no conceptual framework or discussion is organizing these emerging visual vocabularies and their possible recombinations up to now. Against this background, we want to discuss the layout principles of existing visualization methods and align them within a coherent framework to allow for a multimodal navigation of modern news and information spaces. On that basis, accompanying ways and means to minimize well-known barriers in the public and political communication realm are taken into consideration.

“…CBR has been applied successfully in many practical domains [Lamontagne and Plaza, 2014;Jalali and Leake, 2014;Chen et al, 2014;Dong et al, 2014;Freyne and Smyth, 2010;Jurisica, 1997]. The principal idea in CBR is to draw parallels between a new case and those that have been already solved.…”

Learning measures of semi-additive behaviour

In business analytics, measure values, such as sales numbers or volumes of cargo transported, are often summed along values of one or more corresponding categories, such as time or shipping container. However, not every measure should be added by default (e.g., one might more typically want a mean over the heights of a set of people); similarly, some measures should only be summed within certain constraints (e.g., population measures need not be summed over years). In systems such as Watson Analytics, the exact additive behaviour of a measure is often determined by a human expert. In this work, we propose a small set of features for this issue. We use these features in a case-based reasoning approach, where the system suggests an aggregation behaviour, with 86% accuracy in our collected dataset.
