D3 animations are amazing for SVG-based vis, but hard to scale to Canvas/WebGL. I made Counterpoint to help me make large animated embedding plots, and now I’m excited to share it as an open-source JS/TS framework. Presenting virtually @ieeevis this Wed!

Announcing an awesome new large-scale animated visualization tool from @venkats_14:. 🎉Counterpoint! 🎉. Counterpoint helps orchestrate animated data visualizations by providing a robust framework for state management. And the best part?? (next tweet).

Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare has the potential to improve patient outcomes, but clinician acceptance remains a critical barrier. We developed a novel decision support interface that...

We initially aimed to test the effects of AI explanations, but while clinicians rated explanations as more useful, levels of binary "agreement" with the AI stayed about the same! Instead, individuals tended to follow 1 of 4 reliance patterns (surprisingly unrelated to seniority).

Proud to share our #CHI2023 paper on clinician acceptance of AI treatment recommendations! We explore how in complex decision tasks, clinicians often negotiate intermediate actions using facets of an AI prediction, rather than accepting or rejecting the recommendation outright.

You can (collaboratively) create codes as Google Docs comments, and the tool exports the comments and quotes to a Google Sheet (then to Miro/Mural for affinity diagramming). Obv there are fancier tools for qualitative coding, but Docs is free and easy 🥲.

I'm sure a lot of people are working on qualitative analyses for CHI, so I thought I'd share a super simple Python script I built that makes it possible to use Google Docs for qualitative coding of transcripts:

It’s great to see much-needed parents’ and workers’ viewpoints added to the conversation around algorithmic tools in child welfare. Well worth a read!.

Excited to share our #FAccT2022 paper "Imagining new futures beyond predictive systems in child welfare" We talked with parents and workers, who said researchers should work in solidarity with families, beyond just making algorithms for CPS agencies🧵

This wouldn't be possible without @a_a_cabrera's work on Jupyter/Svelte integration, @leland_mcinnes' AlignedUMAP, my advisor @adamperer, and our awesome expert interview participants!. Code (pip install emblaze): Demo: (3/3).

Model builders currently have few tools to choose the most reliable, responsible embeddings for a task. Emblaze lets you project large embedding sets to 2D, animate smoothly between them, and see recommended clusters for comparison. (2/).

This week at #IUI2022 I'll be giving a presentation and live demo on Emblaze, a neat Jupyter-based tool we've developed to help ML model builders interactively compare embedding spaces. Paper: (1/)
