I am pleased to share that my DFG project “Fine-Grained Assessment and Modeling of the Visual Quality of Highly Compressed Images,” has been approved. The project involves collaboration with more than 20 researchers from academia and industry.

The @SfbTrr161 team at Graph Drawing 25’! This year is a big success for the SfbTrr 161 team to contribute 3 full papers and 2 posters.

Which part of graphs do people look at when solving analytical tasks?

📰 Our work "Towards a Better Understanding of Graph Perception in Immersive Environments" was accepted to Graph Drawing #GD2025, which will be presented in September at Norrköping! @SfbTrr161 @VIS_VISUS

Newly funded research by @albrechtschmidt @LMU_Muenchen intends to establish a scientific basis for AI twins of human experience 👯: in other words, AI systems that capture and encode the real-world experiences & tacit knowledge of an individual.

So amazed to get the chance to do my dream research on Human-AI interaction supported by @ERC_Research - check out https://t.co/9pmQUysUCf - how can we create AI models that encode our very personal experiences and how to use them to amplify our cognitive abilities?

Our paper "Fine-Grained Subjective Visual Quality Assessment for High-Fidelity Compressed Images" is published in the 2025 Data Compression Conference (DCC). ✅ Publicly available dataset&code https://t.co/pDMERvmdKt…… #JPEG_AIC

Kathrin Schnizer sharing her first experiment designs for combining gaze and EEG to predict understanding of visualizations as part of the DFG @SfbTrr161 - interesting discussions on what is the minimal valid experiment and how ML allows us to move beyond P300 … @mimuc

Are you working on pervasive and mobile eye tracking 👀? We are organizing the 10th PETMEI, which will be held at ACM ETRA 2025 in Tokyo, Japan.

Submissions due: March 14th, 2025

For two days our researchers have been hacking hard at the SFB-TRR 161 #hackathon! In four teams, they develop #software solutions at the intersection of visualization, interaction, and eye-tracking. We're excited for the publications that will result from their collaboration🤩

How will GenAI change your job? Are you better at than AI? How is AI changing our work, especially in the IT industry. Join us for "GenAI and the Future of IT: Collaboration or Competition?" ... at Netlight/ Munich on 25th Feb 25, 5pm, it is free, https://t.co/GUWimtYxKm @mimuc

@svenmayerhci delivered a great tutorial on statistics for HCI… from basics to linear mixed models and Bayesian statistics - he also had very practical recipes. The decision tree for what stats to do by Valentin Schwind is really helpful (https://t.co/mH7qJzoemq)!

Yesterday's #sfbtrr161 lecture focused on the benefits of introducing human knowledge and preferences into the #DataAnalysis process. Thank you to @bernard_juergen for visiting us in Stuttgart and sharing your expertise on this topic with us!

[SFB-TRR 161 @SfbTrr161]

Thank you to Michael Burch from FH Graubünden for visiting us in Stuttgart today and giving a talk about highly interesting #visualization projects in Switzerland - from predicting avalanches to analyzing ice hockey data and even an explorative data analysis of Pi 🤩👏

[SFB-TRR 161 @SfbTrr161]

Yesterday, Felix Putze from @UniBremenCSL visited us in Munich for the next event in our #sfbtrr161 lecture series. Thanks for an inspiring talk!

[Albrecht Schmidt @albrechtschmidt]

Felix Putze is visiting and talks about cognitive modelling for mixed reality. Interesting ideas of how we can interpret multimodal signals (brain, gaze) to create novel interfaces for AR. #SFB-TRR161 @mimuc @felix_putze @SfbTrr161

Thomas Kosch is talking about the use of AI in scientific research and how this impacts scientific integrity following up discussion on the use of GenAI in writings and reviewing… as part of the seminar of the @SFB-TRR161 @thomas_kosch @mimuc @SfbTrr161

[SFB-TRR 161 @SfbTrr161]

In our latest #sfbtrr161 lecture, @Kenan__Bektas talked about "Pervasive #EyeTracking in the Context of Human #Augmentation". Thank you for visiting us in Stuttgart and sharing your valuable insights on the topic with us!
