A Handsome Atlas: Wildly Awesome Data Visualizations from the Nineteenth Century

MUSIC DATA SCIENCE Software Genomic rearrangements can cause disease and are implicated in many cancers. Being able to see the patterns in these changes across samples and patients is important. In the review article End-joining, Translocations and Cancer, Bunting and Nussenzweig demonstrate how compositing the genome circularly adds value and clarity to the presentation. Bunting SF, Nussenzweig A 2013 End-joining, translocations and cancer Nat Rev Cancer Răzvan Musăloiu-E. explored the Linux file system and used Circos to relate the systems (disk-based, optical mediums, flash-based, network-based, cluster-based, memory-based, ancient) to kernel symbols. Jonathan Feinberg (IBM) created this perfectly circular wordle for me, using content from the Circos site. Visualizing large networks is hard. Circular data tracks naturally support display of information at various resolutions. First, understand the requirements. Download and install the software, then follow the tutorials.

La visualisation analytique, pour comprendre des données complexes Depuis une dizaine d’années, nous sommes entrés dans une nouvelle période : celle de la profusion de données. La visualisation analytique est une méthode qui utilise les capacités visuelles humaines pour accélérer l’exploration de ces quantités importantes de données. Pourquoi a-t-on besoin d’utiliser les capacités visuelles ? Projet européen VisMaster.

Nous disposons aujourd’hui de quantités de données considérables, en conséquence de trois phénomènes : Ces nouvelles opportunités changent les perspectives scientifiques et industrielles. Par exemple, dans les années 1990, les biologistes ont lancé le projet de séquençage du génome humain. De nos jours, les données sont déjà disponibles et en quantités bien plus importantes qu’auparavant. Une représentation efficace Une explication cognitive 2. Un système de recherche dynamique

Urbanscale | Design for networked cities and citizens Designing Interactions Interviews with Terry Winograd, Larry Page and Sergey Brin of Google, Steve Rogers, and Mark Podlaseck Professor Terry Winograd teaches computer science at Stanford. He was advisor to Larry Page when Larry and Sergey Brin were developing their first prototypes, before they founded Google. He gives an overview of the development of the Internet, and explains the reasons behind the extraordinary success that Google has enjoyed. Larry and Sergey were interviewed in 2002, when Google was taking hold, but before there was any talk of going public. Steve Rogers is head of production at BBC New Media. Mark Podlaseck, who researches the navigation of large databases at IBM, describes the rationale behind his beautiful design for the glassengine, a Web site that allows you to browse the music of Philip Glass.
