Cuttlefish: Color Mapping for Dynamic Multi-Scale Visualizations.

ABSTRACT: Visualizations of hierarchical data can often be explored interactively. For example, in geographic visualization, there are continents, which can be subdivided into countries, states, counties and cities. Similarly, in models of viruses or bacteria at the highest level are the compartments, and below that are macromolecules, secondary structures (such as α-helices), amino-acids, and on the finest level atoms. Distinguishing between items can be assisted through the use of color at all levels. However, currently, there are no hierarchical and adaptive color mapping techniques for very large multi-scale visualizations that can be explored interactively. We present a novel, multi-scale, color-mapping technique for adaptively adjusting the color scheme to the current view and scale. Color is
