    Interactive Visual Explanation of Incremental Data Labeling
    (The Eurographics Association, 2022) Beckmann, Raphael; Blaga, Cristian; El-Assady, Mennatallah; Zeppelzauer, Matthias; Bernard, Jürgen; Bernard, Jürgen; Angelini, Marco
    We present a visual analytics approach for the in-depth analysis and explanation of incremental machine learning processes that are based on data labeling. Our approach offers multiple perspectives to explain the process, i.e., data characteristics, label distribution, class characteristics, and classifier characteristics. Additionally, we introduce metrics from which we derive novel aggregated analytic views that enable the analysis of the process over time. We demonstrate the capabilities of our approach in a case study and thereby demonstrate how our approach improves the transparency of the iterative learning process.

    SepEx: Visual Analysis of Class Separation Measures
    (The Eurographics Association, 2020) Bernard, Jürgen; Hutter, Marco; Zeppelzauer, Matthias; Sedlmair, Michael; Munzner, Tamara; Turkay, Cagatay and Vrotsou, Katerina
    Class separation is an important concept in machine learning and visual analytics. However, the comparison of class separation for datasets with varying dimensionality is non-trivial, given a) the various possible structural characteristics of datasets and b) the plethora of separation measures that exist. Building upon recent findings in visualization research about the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of class separation for 2D dimensionally reduced data using scatterplots, this research addresses the visual analysis of class separation measures for high-dimensional data. We present SepEx, an interactive visualization approach for the assessment and comparison of class separation measures for multiple datasets. SepEx supports analysts with the comparison of multiple separation measures over many high-dimensional datasets, the effect of dimensionality reduction on measure outputs by supporting nD to 2D comparison, and the comparison of the effect of different dimensionality reduction methods on measure outputs. We demonstrate SepEx in a scenario on 100 two-class 5D datasets with a linearly increasing amount of separation between the classes, illustrating both similarities and nonlinearities across 11 measures.

    Visual Analysis of Degree-of-Interest Functions to Support Selection Strategies for Instance Labeling
    (The Eurographics Association, 2019) Bernard, Jürgen; Hutter, Marco; Ritter, Christian; Lehmann, Markus; Sedlmair, Michael; Zeppelzauer, Matthias; Landesberger, Tatiana von and Turkay, Cagatay
    Manually labeling data sets is a time-consuming and expensive task that can be accelerated by interactive machine learning and visual analytics approaches. At the core of these approaches are strategies for the selection of candidate instances to label. We introduce degree-of-interest (DOI) functions as atomic building blocks to formalize candidate selection strategies. We introduce a taxonomy of DOI functions and an approach for the visual analysis of DOI functions, which provide novel complementary views on labeling strategies and DOIs, support their in-depth analysis and facilitate their interpretation. Our method shall support the generation of novel and better explanation of existing labeling strategies in future.
