    Validation of Quantitative Measures for Edge Bundling by Comparing with Human Feeling
    (The Eurographics Association, 2018) Saga, Ryosuke; Anna Puig and Renata Raidou
    This paper describes an analysis of the relationship between human cognition and quantitative measures for a visualization method called edge bundling.Aesthetic rules-based measures, namely, mean edge length difference (MELD), normalized MELD (NMELD), mean occupation area, and edge density distribution (EDD), for evaluating and quantifying the result of edge bundling are proposed. However, comparing these measures with human cognition has not been analyzed. Therefore, a questionnaire survey with approximately 40 respondents was conducted to clarify the relationship between human cognition and these evaluation measures. Results showed that NMELD, MELD, and EDD demonstrate robust and significant correlations with human cognition.

    A Visual Comparison of Hand-Drawn and Machine-Generated Human Metabolic Pathways
    (The Eurographics Association, 2018) Wu, Hsiang-Yun; Nöllenburg, Martin; Viola, Ivan; Anna Puig and Renata Raidou
    This poster abstract presents a visual comparison between three hand-drawn and one machine-generated human metabolic pathway diagrams. The human metabolic pathways, which describe significant biochemical reactions in the human body, have been increasingly investigated due to the development of analysis processes and are compiled into pathway diagrams to provide an overview of reaction in human body. This complex network includes about 5,000 metabolites and 7,500 reactions, which are hierarchically nested and difficult to visualize. We collect and analyze well-known human metabolic pathway diagrams, and summarize the design choices of these diagrams, respectively. Together with a machine-generated diagram, we can understand the visual complexity of three hand-drawn and one machine-generated diagrams.
