Do not rely solely on your personal aesthetic.

Strive for simplicity and clarity.

YOU WANT TO BE A BETTER COMMUNICATOR

Excellent organization and consistency. Vertical lines cue continuity. Good use of color.

Chartjunk plentiful. Screaming ornamental and redundant elements. Text inconsistent and illegible.

In either, we don’t always know the end product.

But we must understand how we might get there.

SCIENCE IS A PROCESS

DESIGN IS A PROCESS

Page 11: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

VIZBI 2013

you have data

you may have a message

you need to create a !gure (or think you do)

Page 12: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

VIZBI 2013

you select your encoding

e.g. sequence logo

Page 13: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

VIZBI 2013

you generate the image with an application that supports the encoding

Page 14: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

VIZBI 2013

you write a legend, making upfor things that are not obvious

William Ray, http://www.biovis.net/year/2013/info/redesign-contest

Sequence logos showing the amino acid usage in the adenylate kinase lid (AKL) domain. (A) Across all organisms. (B) from Gram-negative bacteria. (C) from Gram-positive bacteria. The ADK lid domain structure is universally conserved, but is stabilized in the Gram-negatives by a hydrogen bonding network between residues 4, 7, 9, 24, 27, and 29 (and several other residues in some organisms), while the Gram-positives are stabilized by a bound metal ion, tetrahedrally coordinated by the Cysteines at 4, 7, 24 and 27. The identities of several other positions (eg 5, 8, 30, 32) are differentially constrained in each subfamily as well, apparently due to steric requirements of the stabilizing residues.

Page 15: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

VIZBI 2013

your !gure is done

how do you knowwhether the creation process

was successful?

Page 16: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

VIZBI 2013

The desire for a !gure is not always proportional to its utility.

IS ABSOLUTE ACCURACY ALWAYS IMPORTANT?

Page 20: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

accuracy does not always add to utility

NO

Page 21: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

In the age of big data, !gures should be worth more than 1,000 words.

to explore data, choose effective encoding

to communicate concepts, use effective design

Page 37: PDF - Martin Krzywinski

Tufte, E. The Visual Display of Quantitative Information (Graphic Press, Cheshire, Connecticut, USA, 2007).

HOW TO APPROACH VISUALIZATION

show the data

induce viewer to think about substance rather than methodology

encourage eye to compare different pieces of data

avoid distorting what the data represents

present many numbers in a small space

make large data sets coherent

reveal data at several levels of detail – broad overview and !ne structure

what is the core message? structure and evidence of a gene fusion

what is important? gene name and orientation location of breakpoint change in orientation, if any local sequence context supporting evidence

what is not important, or peripheral? gene size gene location gene model (learn to let go)
