图形评价的结构美学与认知任务支持

Structure Based Aesthetics and Support of Cognitive Tasks for Graph Evaluation

Weidong Huang

摘要:

绘图原则或美学在图形绘制中很重要。它们被用作算法设计和质量评估的标准。当前的美学被描述为视觉特性,要求绘图必须具有视觉上的愉悦。然而,大多数这些美学最初提出没有考虑图的结构信息。因此,它们在视觉上揭示图形结构特征的能力不能得到保证,并且在文献中报告了关于它们对用户图形理解的影响的混合结果。在本文中,我们提出了基于图的内部结构特征的美学推导。此外,图通常基于具有简单感知任务的受控实验来评估,以避免复杂任务引起的可能的混淆因素。这使得它们在支持复杂任务方面的价值没有得到评估。为了填补这一空白,我们还讨论了应用评价方法的可能性,在认知负荷理论的研究图形评价。

英文摘要:

Drawing principles, or aesthetics, are important in graph drawing. They are used as criteria for algorithm design and for quality evaluation. Current aesthetics are described as visual properties that a drawing is required to have to be visually pleasing. However, most of these aesthetics are originally proposed without consideration of graph structure information. Therefore their ability in visually revealing graph structural features are not guaranteed and indeed mixed results have been reported in the literature regarding their impact on user graph comprehension. In this paper, we propose to derive aesthetics based on graph internal structural features. Further, graphs are often evaluated based on controlled experiments with simple perception tasks to avoid possible confounding factors caused by complex tasks. This leaves their value in supporting complex tasks unevaluated. To fill this gap, we also discuss the possibility of applying evaluation methodologies used in the Cognitive Load Theory research for graph evaluation.
