Abstract:
Users utilize information visualization tools to explore their multivariate data in two- and three-dimensional environ- ments in order to uncover patterns, form hypotheses or pursue questions of interest; they filter, search, zoom, and interact with the data. We first present a short survey of interactive selection mechanisms for information visualization and related work. We follow with our panoramic range slider and show the examples of its application and utility and present results of a case study. Finally, we elucidate on the advantages that the panoramic range slider can provide while identifying areas of further refinement.
