信息測量 - 1bit ( 是或否 )

音符超過七個的時候不容易記，但只有兩三個就相對簡單了 ( 播放 mary has a little lamb 中 )

圖中的點數不多時，很容易重製，也會去算多少個

太多時：

• 就會從絕對判斷轉向估計判斷了, 也不容易再被重製出來
• 若再加上面積與密度，會更容易判讀

重新編碼

• 雖然波可能代表了 2 bit 式的資料，但我們比較會直接注意波形 ( ? )
• 一堆 10 很難記, 但重新編碼就會比較好記
• e.g., 1000100011011001(超過7個) -> 20203121(超過7個) -> 88d9 (好記)
• 回憶是「建構」記憶而非提取

 

小說這個blog有提到本paper的內容，該網站也有很多ui設計的有趣文章可以自行看看

羅佩琪Data Driven Document

or what makes d3.js great

 

 

Level of abstraction

• encapsulation
• intermediate representations

 

• sprite.graphics.drawCircle(0, 0, 10);

 

vs.

 

 

 

 

 

trade-off

1. Efficiency: human effort required to specify a vis
2. Expressiveness: diversity of visualizations

羅佩琪c3.js, NVD3.js and other are limited in expressiveness

1. Accessibility: difficulty of learning the representation (due to internal structure)

 

 

key goals for d3.js

1. Compatibility: works with other system (CSS), evolves with standard, native expressiveness
2. Debugging: vs. encapsulation of control
3. Performance: avoid redundant computation by letting dev. controls transition

 

What is d3.js

1. Data Driven DOM manipulation (Like jQuery)
2. add/remove elements
3. high-level helper ( helper function (format, d3.csv), and hopefully stats model as in R)

 

 

Difference between d3.js and Protovis

1. implicit or explicit transformation

• (Protovis specify scene changes, have to re-evaluate all properties vs. d3.js specify changes)

1. deferred or immediate evaluation

• (Prototis users need to understand internal control flow)

1. access to a native representation

• (Protovis Line, Wedge all prototypal inheritance vs. d3 circle cx and rect x)
• -> selection can be retrieved at any time vis console
