What distinguishes visual analytics is the integration of data analysis with visualization methods so that data analysis can be launched directly from the visualization, and the visualization adjusted in response to the data analysis.
And manipulation is increasingly what distinguishes visual media in the day-to-day world.
It is just that they look backward as much as they look forward in their ideas and influence, suggesting the possibility of a new shift toward reclaiming some of the qualities that distinguish visual art from other imagery.
For evaluation of the efficacy of neuroprotective agents in glaucoma, one of the challenges facing the development of new psychophysical tests is to be able to distinguish visual function losses that are due to ganglion cell drop-out ("dead" cells) from those that are due to malfunctioning retinal nerve fibers ("sick" cells).
Thus, the representational theory of sensory qualities cannot be purely representational, but must appeal to some further factor, to distinguish visual representations from other sorts of representations of redness.
In order to navigate through the environment and interact successfully with objects, it is imperative that we distinguish visual motion caused by self-generated movements from that caused by external events in the world (Probst et al., 1984; Wallach, 1987; Warren and Saunders, 1995).
While ploidy level in some grass species (e.g. buffalograss) cannot be distinguished visually [ 17], in Brachypodium when grown side by side polyploid lines were easily distinguished from diploid lines by visual examination.
Stimulus modality can be distinguished as visual (pictures, movies) or non-visual (recorded stories, self-generated fantasies).
The increased variability of vernier thresholds in older subjects would appear to limit the diagnostic value of the test as a means of enabling normal ageing to be distinguished from visual loss due to pathology of the eye or visual system.
Six different bed operating regimes were distinguished by visual inspection.
