Visual Data Analysis (ViDA) Laboratory is a research group at Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU) and led by Ko-Chih Wang (王科植). The main research directions of ViDA are large-scale data analysis and visualization, machine learning, high-performance computing and computer graphics. We conduct cutting-edge research in data visualization for scientific data processing and analysis. Visualization research is at an intersection of data science, computer graphics and large-scale data handling, and has been playing an increasingly important role in many applications. Our research focuses on leveraging machine learning techniques to develop trustworthy emulators that assist scientists in handling large-scale data and high-computation challenges in numerical simulations. We are also interested in employing visualization techniques to help scientists gain deeper insights into machine learning-based emulators, enhancing their confidence in using them effectively.
