Group A[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Short Questions[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

 - 3 common infoVis tasks
 - how many attributes does the pixel bar allow you to see
 - what is force-directed graph ? 
 - there was a biplot conserving the similarities. They gave us two attributes and asked if they are correlated or not. 
 - there was parallel coordinates graoh and asked what attributes are co-linear .
 - what is Flannery's compensation. Why do we need it. 
 - reasons why we need image registration.

Long Questions[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

 - two main challenges of scalability and how to overcome these challenges. Describe the techniques.
 - problems with 3D network graph when we increase the number of the nodes. What techniques should we use to solve this problem.
 - high dimensional data: you have a dataset containing a number of countries as rows and number of indicators (life expectancy , ... ) as columns. The task is to design a graph which enables you to easily compare countries and continents. You are also supposed to say how you get there and what techniques to use.
