This National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) award of $316,000 to the University of Utah aims to enable computers to serve as more reliable and robust assistants in guiding analysts to make effective data visualization design decisions. The project targets three interleaved technical challenges: modeling user goals and knowledge to reason about visualization strategies, developing richer specification-level...
This $343,324 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Northeastern University to develop empirically validated perceptual tasks for data visualization. The goal is to refine and evaluate a model of the lower-level perceptual processes underlying higher-level data analysis and visualization tasks. Researchers will conduct qualitative studies to document how people decompose tasks and then empirically evaluate proposed perceptual subtasks like filtering images, judging...

This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) provides $632,000 to the University of Washington to develop advanced techniques for enabling computers to provide more effective guidance and feedback for data visualization design. The key objectives are to create "provably effective" visualization analysis methods that can be automated and integrated into visualization tools, helping analysts navigate complex data-driven decisions. The project targets three technical challenges: modeling user goals and knowledge, formal reasoning about visualization specifications, and analyzing the operational semantics of visualization output. The integrated system aims to support scalable visualization and multi-view dashboard designs, with the results disseminated through open-source software, tutorials, and curriculum development. This award reflects NSF's mission to advance scientific knowledge and technological innovation in computing and information science.
