The competitive sorption of the antibiotics sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and trimethoprim (TMP) and SMX-Cd(II) on a hybrid clay nanosorbent (NanoSorb) was investigated in detail in this work. NanoSorb was synthesized by sorbing a surfactant on bentonite. Besides, the sorption of...

What is Interaction for Data Visualization?.

IEEE transactions on visualization and computer graphics

Dimara E, Perin C.
PMID: 31425089
IEEE Trans Vis Comput Graph. 2020 Jan;26(1):119-129. doi: 10.1109/TVCG.2019.2934283. Epub 2019 Aug 19.

Interaction is fundamental to data visualization, but what "interaction" means in the context of visualization is ambiguous and confusing. We argue that this confusion is due to a lack of consensual definition. To tackle this problem, we start by...
