Background
  • Assistant professor in the Algorithms cluster at TU Eindhoven, the Netherlands
  • Research broadly captured as algorithmic visualization, at the intersection of algorithms and information visualization
  • Focuses on automatically computing high-quality visualizations of data
  • Applies methods from algorithms, computational geometry, and graph drawing to information visualization, automated cartography, and geographic information science
  • Specializes in designing and optimizing objective measures of visualization quality
  • Key research themes include: octilinear and curved schematization of geographic shapes/networks, computing Fréchet distances and matchings, and spatially informative visualization of set systems or hypergraphs
  • Views space as a deformable tool to highlight data structures, provide context, and focus attention
