abstract = {The advent of large language models has brought about new ways of interacting with data intuitively via natural language. In recent years, a variety of visualization systems have explored the use of natural language to create and modify visualizations through visualization-oriented dialog. However, the majority of these systems rely on tailored dialog agents to analyze domain-specific data and operate domain-specific visualization tools and libraries. This is a major challenge when trying to transfer functionalities between dialog interfaces of different visualization applications. To address this issue, we propose VIST5, a visualization-oriented dialog system that focuses on easy adaptability to an application domain as well as easy transferability of language-controllable visualization library functions between applications. Its architecture is based on a retrieval-augmented T5 language model that leverages few-shot learning capabilities to enable a rapid adaptation of the system.},

abstract = {Existing language and vision models achieve impressive performance in image-text understanding. Yet, it is an open question to what extent they can be used for language understanding in 3D environments and whether they implicitly acquire 3D object knowledge, e.g. about different views of an object. In this paper, we investigate whether a state-of-the-art language and vision model, CLIP, is able to ground perspective descriptions of a 3D object and identify canonical views of common objects based on text queries. We present an evaluation framework that uses a circling camera around a 3D object to generate images from different viewpoints and evaluate them in terms of their similarity to natural language descriptions. We find that a pre-trained CLIP model performs poorly on most canonical views and that fine-tuning using hard negative sampling and random contrasting yields good results even under conditions with little available training data.},

abstract = {Metaphorical design is a Participatory Design technique suitable for problem setting and concept development. The technique can be particularly constructive when designing (computer) systems in an already digitalized environment. In such contexts, designers might be tempted to draw on readily available technical solutions, thus hampering the discovery of new perspectives. Our use case is the development of a research data platform that aims to provide innovative functionality, especially for assessing and exploring digital resources. We developed a participatory workshop format adapting metaphorical design that first creates a shared understanding of the context and then guides participants to generate metaphors using a projective technique. We show how we used these metaphors to understand the participants’ model of the research data platform, to identify possible domains of activities, and to stimulate new viewpoints on the research data platform and its functionality. With this paper, we provide an application example of the adapted metaphorical design process, propose a metaphor evaluation matrix, and discuss the findings.},
