Synopsis

This book presents an insightful framework for establishing reliable data evaluation and benchmarking processes in visualization and data mining. Historically, these fields have lacked standard methodologies for assessing the effectiveness of tools and techniques, which has hindered progress. The author demonstrates the pressing need for reproducible experiments and controlled testing environments to advance the development of effective systems. The book explores various evaluation approaches from related information technology domains and proposes a basic framework for conducting evaluations in data mining. It introduces a set of testing criteria, covering aspects such as scalability, ease of integration, and user interaction, and describes a prototype evaluation environment that has been developed to test and compare different visualization techniques. Through detailed examples and case studies, the author illustrates how the proposed evaluation methodology can be applied to assess the strengths and weaknesses of specific visualizations. By providing a comprehensive overview of evaluation techniques and offering practical guidance for their implementation, this book empowers researchers and practitioners to make informed choices when selecting visualization tools and techniques for their specific needs.
