Data state reference

Parts of his things map really nicely to Data State Reference Model’s steps

• Fry’s:
  • Parse, Filter -> Data stage
    • Parse could be also Datentransformation, since it changes the data, which you can’t do in data stage
  • Mine
    • Datentransformation, but generally mining implies looking for patterns
    • But looking for patterns is not part of data state reference at all?
  • Represent: Visualisierungstransformation
    • or more likely Visuelle abstraction
  • Refine: nowhere, but visuelle abstraction is the best place for it
  • Interact: Bild, but visualisierungstransformation if I had to choose.
    • “thinking of methods where to interact” is 10/10 visualierungstransformationen

Munzner

Same, Abstracting first, designing visual things second.

• Fry’s
  • Parse -> abstracting into operations on data types
  • Represent, refine, interact -> “designing visual encoding and interaction techn.”

Knowledge generation model

Few parallels as the scope and goals are different, but if needed all of these steps can be located in the Data, Visualization, Model triangle.
