Be Still My Random Heart
Be still my random heart! My entry at an impromptu Valentine's Day hackaton at work. Classification of random points done by a neural net created by JMP software and converted to JavaScript. Visualization by D3.js. Details and source code here.

Constance: an experiment with Object Constancy
This is a little experiment based on Mike Bostock's writings about object constancy and Jeffrey Heer's paper on Animated Transitions in Statistical Data Graphics.
The idea of animating the transition between data visualizations - keeping object constancy as they change - is to allow the user to track elements of interest. The animation allows the user to make a connection between the different facets surfaced by each visualization.
This technique animates between D3.js layout calculations. Rectangles are converted to circles and vice-versa through the manipulation of the rx and ry attributes of the SVG rect element.
