We are happy to welcome Raphael Buchmüller as a new colleague, who recently joined us from the Data Analysis and Visualization Group of Daniel Keim at the University of Konstanz.
Raphael’s research focuses on interactive visualization and explainable AI for language models, with additional interests in high-dimensional data projection, network analysis, and human–ML interaction
We’re excited to welcome two new members to the KAVis project and to the CVAST group at TU Wien!
Fatih Öztank is starting a PhD on visual interactive segmentation of multivariate spatial time series with a focus on uncertainty and data quality challenges.
We’re excited to share a new publication, which explores how Visual Analytics (VA) can better incorporate user-generated artefacts—such as annotations, parameter settings, spatial arrangements, and other interactive constructs—as valuable carriers of insight.
Traditional VA systems often neglect these artefacts, despite their critical role in capturing users’ contextual understanding and subjective judgments.
"Persistent interaction: A conceptualization of user-generated artefacts in Visual Analytics"
