クラッタリングを回避する3 次元情報可視化手法を用いたコンテンツブラウザ

3D Contents browser using a cluttering-avoided visualization technique

著者/Authors

概要/Abstract

We propose a three-dimensional visualization technique which realizes browsing of hierarchical or metadata-based link structures intelligibly while avoiding three-dimensional cluttering. The paper describes the algorithm which relocates the metaphor of contents mapped onto three-dimensional space so that cluttering is avoided on a two-dimensional projection space. We apply the visualization technique ”HeiankyoView” which represents hierarchical structure as nested rectangular regions, and enables to directly access to the contents which place at the lowest level of hierarchy. Furthermore, when a user chooses arbitrary content, the technique efficiently represents the classification result based on another metadata simultaneously.
