For example, any meteorological description of a weather condition and explanation of its evolution recurs to meteorological structures, such as convection and circulation structures, cloud fields and rain fronts. All of these are spatiotemporal structures, defined by time-dependent patterns in the underlying fields. Typically, such a structure is defined by a verbal description that corresponds to the more or less uniform, often somewhat vague mental images of the experts. However, a precise, formal definition of the structures or, more generally, concepts is often desirable, e.g., to enable automated data analysis or the development of phenomenological models. Here, we present a systematic approach and an interactive tool to obtain formal definitions of spatiotemporal structures. The tool enables experts to evaluate and compare different structure definitions on the basis of data sets with time-dependent fields that contain the respective structure. Since structure definitions are typically parameterized, an essential part is to identify parameter ranges that lead to desired structures in all time steps. In addition, it is important to allow a quantitative assessment of the resulting structures simultaneously. We demonstrate the use of the tool by applying it to two meteorological examples: finding structure definitions for vortex cores and center lines of temporarily evolving tropical cyclones. Ideally, structure definitions should be objective and applicable to as many data sets as possible. However, finding such definitions, e.g., for the common atmospheric structures in meteorology, can only be a long-term goal. The proposed procedure, together with the presented tool, is just a first systematic approach aiming at facilitating this long and arduous way.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BindernagelKainmuellerSeimetal.2011, author = {Bindernagel, Matthias and Kainm{\"u}ller, Dagmar and Seim, Heiko and Lamecker, Hans and Zachow, Stefan and Hege, Hans-Christian}, title = {An Articulated Statistical Shape Model of the Human Knee}, series = {Bildverarbeitung f{\"u}r die Medizin 2011}, booktitle = {Bildverarbeitung f{\"u}r die Medizin 2011}, publisher = {Springer}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-642-19335-4_14}, pages = {59 -- 63}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KainmuellerLameckerZachowetal.2009, author = {Kainm{\"u}ller, Dagmar and Lamecker, Hans and Zachow, Stefan and Hege, Hans-Christian}, title = {An Articulated Statistical Shape Model for Accurate Hip Joint Segmentation}, series = {EBMC 2009.

Insight into the performance of fiber reconstruction algorithms is obtained by a list-based ranking interface. A 3D view offers interactive visualization techniques to gain deeper insight, e.g., into the aggregated quality of the examined fiber reconstruction algorithms and parameterizations. The tool was designed in close collaboration with researchers who work with fiber-reinforced polymers on a daily basis and develop algorithms for tomographic reconstruction and characterization of such materials. We evaluate the tool using synthetic datasets as well as tomograms of real materials. Five case studies certify the usefulness of the tool, showing that it significantly accelerates the analysis and provides valuable insights that make it possible to improve the fiber reconstruction algorithms. The main contribution of the paper is the well-considered combination of methods and their seamless integration into a visual tool that supports the entire workflow.

Our approach is based on two types of structural data: brain regions that are anatomically or functionally defined, and morphologies of individual neurons. Both types of structural data are interlinked and augmented with additional information. The presented tool allows the expert user to identify neurons using Boolean queries. The interactive formulation of these queries is supported by linked views, using, among other things, two novel 2D abstractions of neural circuits. The approach was validated in two case studies investigating the neural basis of vision-based behavioral responses in zebrafish larvae. Despite this particular application, we believe that the presented tool will be of general interest for exploring hypotheses about neural circuits in other species, genera and taxa.}, language = {en} } @article{SipsKothurUngeretal.2012, author = {Sips, Mike and Kothur, Patrick and Unger, Andrea and Hege, Hans-Christian and Dransch, Doris}, title = {A Visual Analytics Approach to Multiscale Exploration of Environmental Time Series}, series = {IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics}, volume = {18}, journal = {IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics}, number = {12}, doi = {10.1109/TVCG.2012.191}, pages = {2899 -- 2907}, year = {2012}, abstract = {We present a Visual Analytics approach that addresses the detection of interesting patterns in numerical time series, specifically from environmental sciences.

A problem which must be taken care of in order to utilize their full potential is that of correlation between intra-subject measurements taken at different times. For data in Euclidean space this can be done with hierarchical models, that is, models that consider intra-subject and between-subject variability in two different stages. Nevertheless, data from medical studies often takes values in nonlinear manifolds. Here, as a first step, geodesic hierarchical models have been developed that generalize the linear ansatz by assuming that time-induced intra-subject variations occur along a generalized straight line in the manifold. However, this is often not the case (e.g., periodic motion or processes with saturation). We propose a hierarchical model for manifold-valued data that extends this to include trends along higher-order curves, namely B{\´e}zier splines in the manifold. To this end, we present a principled way of comparing shape trends in terms of a functional-based Riemannian metric. Remarkably, this metric allows efficient, yet simple computations by virtue of a variational time discretization requiring only the solution of regression problems. We validate our model on longitudinal data from the osteoarthritis initiative, including classification of disease progression.}, language = {en} } @misc{NavaYazdaniHegevonTycowicz, author = {Nava-Yazdani, Esfandiar and Hege, Hans-Christian and von Tycowicz, Christoph}, title = {A Hierarchical Geodesic Model for Longitudinal Analysis on Manifolds}, issn = {1438-0064}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-85187}, abstract = {In many applications, geodesic hierarchical models are adequate for the study of temporal observations.

This newly introduced method combines the advantages of spectral methods, such as Fourier decomposition or dynamic mode decomposition, with the energy-ranked proper orthogonal decomposition (POD). This poster visualizes how the modal energy spectrum transitions from the spectral purity of Fourier space to the sparsity of POD space. The transition is achieved by changing a single parameter - the width of the SPOD filter. Each dot in the 3D space corresponds to an SPOD mode pair, where the size and color indicates its spectral coherence. What we notice is that neither the Fourier nor the POD spectrum achieves a clear separation of the dynamic phenomena. Scanning through the graph from the front plane (Fourier) to the back plane (POD), we observe how three highly coherent SPOD modes emerge from the dispersed Fourier spectrum and later branch out into numerous POD modes. The spatial properties of these three individual SPOD modes are displayed in the back of the graph using line integral convolution colored by vorticity. The first two modes correspond to single-helical global instabilities that are well known for these flows. Their coexistence, however, has not been observed until now. The third mode is of double- helical shape and has not been observed so far. For this considered data set and many others, the SPOD is superior in identification of coherent structures in turbulent flows. Hopefully, it gives access to new fluid dynamic phenomena and enriches the available methods.}, language = {en} } @misc{NavaYazdaniHegevonTycowicz, author = {Nava-Yazdani, Esfandiar and Hege, Hans-Christian and von Tycowicz, Christoph}, title = {A Geodesic Mixed Effects Model in Kendall's Shape Space}, series = {Proc. 7th MICCAI workshop on Mathematical Foundations of Computational Anatomy (MFCA)}, journal = {Proc. 7th MICCAI workshop on Mathematical Foundations of Computational Anatomy (MFCA)}, issn = {1438-0064}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-74621}, abstract = {In many applications, geodesic hierarchical models are adequate for the study of temporal observations.
