论文摘要
动画可视化越来越流行，作为一种令人信服的方式来说明时间序列数据的变化。但是，由于其耗时的性质，在整个动画中保持观众的重点是困难的。在不断变化的动画可视化过程中，观众可能会变得无聊和分心。在预示的作用下，我们介绍了视觉预示，以改善动画可视化的参与度。具体而言，我们建议在观看动画时吸引观众的视觉预示设计。为了展示我们的方法，我们构建了概念验证的动画可视化创作工具，该工具将视觉预e技术与各种样式结合在一起。我们的用户研究表明了我们的预防技术在改善动画可视化的参与度方面的有效性。
Animated visualization is becoming increasingly popular as a compelling way to illustrate changes in time series data. However, maintaining the viewer's focus throughout the entire animation is difficult because of its time-consuming nature. Viewers are likely to become bored and distracted during the ever-changing animated visualization. Informed by the role of foreshadowing that builds the expectation in film and literature, we introduce visual foreshadowing to improve the engagement of animated visualizations. In specific, we propose designs of visual foreshadowing that engage the audience while watching the animation. To demonstrate our approach, we built a proof-of-concept animated visualization authoring tool that incorporates visual foreshadowing techniques with various styles. Our user study indicates the effectiveness of our foreshadowing techniques on improving engagement for animated visualization.
