Visual Analytics: Mining, Mapping, and Accelerating Local and Global Science and Tech

This talk will present research results and case studies that aim to increase our scientific understanding of the inner workings of local and global S&T using temporal, geospatial, topical, and network analysis and visualization techniques. It will also introduce novel approaches and tools that improve information access, researcher networking, and research management for expert and novice users.
