An Introduction to Evaluation in Medical Visualization
(The Eurographics Association, 2016) Smit, Noeska; Lawonn, Kai; Kai Lawonn and Mario Hlawitschka and Paul Rosenthal
Medical visualization papers often deal with data that is interpreted by medical domain experts in a research or clinical context. Since visualizations are by definition designed to be interpreted by a human observer, often an evaluation is performed to confirm the utility of a presented method. The exact type of evaluation required is not always clear, especially to new researchers. With this paper, we hope to clarify the different types of evaluation methods that exist and provide practical guidelines to choose the most suitable evaluation method to increase the value of the work.
