Come learn from Josh about how graphical operators enable some incredibly expressive vis design! This work has been incredibly influential in shaping how we’ve been thinking of the future of visualization grammars at @mitvis. 3:45 pm in Hall M2 #ieeevis #VIS26

Heading to @SciPyConf this week? Learn how to build effective interactive visualizations with @vega_vis in @jonmmease and my tutorial on Vega-Altair. We’ll demo best practices for data visualization and show how to apply them to your own charts!

“I’m working on a big idea!” But… what is a big idea, really? And are we just telling ourselves that to feel better about not publishing? Or superior than others? Some personal reflections on deep work and big idea: 🔗 ryanyen2.github.io/blog/big-idea/

I’ll be at #CHI2025 🌸 If you are excited about interpretability and human-AI alignment — let’s chat! And come see Abstraction Alignment ⬇️ in the Explainable AI paper session on Monday at 4:20 JST
Angie Boggust@angie_boggust

#CHI2025 paper on human–AI alignment! 🧵 Models can learn the right concepts but still be wrong in how they relate them. ✨Abstraction Alignment✨evaluates whether models learn human-aligned conceptual relationships. It reveals misalignments in LLMs💬 and medical datasets🏥.

I’m so enormously grateful and proud of our BostonVIS students! Within hours of #ieeevis going virtual, they jumped on Zoom and brainstormed a set of satellite events. Two days later, we’re delighted to announce an initial schedule!! RSVP + updates: bostonvis.org

Doing my PhD alongside @ohnobackspace has been such a wonderful learning experience that I can’t imagine how cool it would be to have him as an advisor
