create Calagator::Event 1250458462 Galois Tech Talk Roll back

description nil → Galois is pleased to host two tech talks on Wed., March 24. Visualization and Diversity Information Details: * Presenter: Prof. Ron Metoyer * Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2010 * Time: 10:30am Abstract: The term “diversity’’ is used in many ways in many domains. People are concerned about the diversity of their work force, stock portfolios, student body, and forest insects, just to name a few. In this talk, I will discuss a work-in-progress visualization technique specifically designed to communicate diversity information. I will present the design concerns, resulting visualizations, and a study design for evaluating the method. I will conclude with a discussion of a case-study application to moth species data. Bio: Ronald Metoyer is an Associate Professor in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Oregon State University. He earned a Ph.D. from the Georgia Institute of Technology where he worked in the Graphics, Visualization and Usability Center with a focus on modeling and visualizing the motion of pedestrians in urban and architectural scenes. Dr. Metoyer currently co-directs the NVIDIA Graphics and Imaging Technologies Lab (GAIT) with his colleagues at OSU. His past research efforts have involved the investigation of techniques for manipulating motion capture data and for facilitating the creation of 3D content by end users with the goal of empowering domain experts to create compelling and interactive content for their domain specific needs. In 2002, he received an NSF CAREER Award for his work in “Understanding the Complexities of Animated Content”. Dr. Metoyer’s most recent research interests fall under the domain of information visualization. ------------------------------ TITLE: TBA Details: * Presenter: Prof. Mike Bailey * Date: Wednesday, March 24, 2010 * Time: 11:00am Abstract: TBA Bio: Mike Bailey is a Professor in Computer Science at Oregon State University.
