Optimizing Symbol Visibility through Displacement
In information visualization, the position of symbols often encodes associated data values. When visualizing data elements with both a numerical and a categorical dimension, positioning in the categorical axis admits some flexibility. This flexibility can be exploited to reduce symbol overlap, and thereby increase legibility. In this paper, we initialize the algorithmic study of optimizing symbol legibility via a limited displacement of the symbols. Specifically, we consider closed unit square …

See What I Mean? CUE: A Cognitive Model of Understanding Explanations
As machine learning systems increasingly inform critical decisions, the need for human-understandable explanations grows. Current evaluations of Explainable AI (XAI) often prioritize technical fidelity over cognitive accessibility which critically affects users, in particular those with visual impairments. We propose CUE, a model for Cognitive Understanding of Explanations, linking explanation properties to cognitive sub-processes: legibility (perception), readability (comprehension), and inter…

• No trillion dollar company needs anyone’s defense
• Having said that, Liquid Glass is cool and I hope they sort out accessibility contrast / legibility
• People who remember Vista but not Aqua are, uh, not old heads I guess. It’s fine but not a great comparison there
