About Us
Interactive Data Exploration System (IDEAS) Lab (formerly known as ”VisLab”) was founded 2016 at Shandong University, Qingdao, China by Prof. Yunhai Wang. Its mission is to enhance people's ability to understand and communicate data through the design of automated visualization and visual analytics systems.
We study the perceptual and mathematical foundations of visualization in order to improve the efficiency of interactive data analysis, while developing interactive systems for data visualization and analysis.
