conversely, most vis reduces data in some way. Dimensions lost in vis create confusion just like summaries do

A great demonstration of why we need to plot the data and never trust statistics tables! autodeskresearch.com/publica…

Change in professional affiliation is a significant alpha; prominently showing same logo on all presentation slides is a misleader. #ieeevis
maximizing (received) signal/noise is making omegas as large as possible for the important alphas #ieeevis
Connected scatterplots (parametric plots) @eagereyes @sharoz show alphas like adding interval of periodic behavior (omega: adding loop)
Surprise maps by Michael Correll and @jeffrey_heer use Bayesian models to reduce confusers in thematic maps. #IEEEVIS #InfoVis

Pro-tip: Alphabetical is the sort of last resort. It means there is no other relevant grouping, that nothing else matters.
.@maartenzam's strip plots maartenlambrechts.be/interac… are a nice example of removing the ordering hallucinator from a dot plot. Nicely done.
Previous RT shows great example of how to do 1-dimensional plots without list-ordering hallucinators.

Jansen & Hornbaek find perceptual curves for physical size, enlarging set of physicalizations that can be analyzed using algebra #infovis

if your alpha involves changing correlation in a visualization, thanks to @laneharrison we now know how to evaluate the omega
