_ New Book "Linked Data Visualization: Techniques, Tools and Big Data" Laura Po, Nikos Bikakis, Federico Desimoni & George Papastefanatos Morgan & Claypool 2020 ISBN: 9781681737256 | 9781681737263 (ebook) DOI: 10.2200/S00967ED1V01Y201911WBE019 Morgan & Claypool: https://www.morganclaypool.com/doi/abs/10.2200/S00967ED1V01Y201911WBE019 Homepage: http://www.linkeddatavisualization.com This book covers a wide spectrum of visualization topics, providing an overview of the recent advances in this area, focusing on techniques, tools, and use cases of visualization and visual analysis of Data (LD). It presents the core concepts related to data visualization and LD technologies, techniques employed for data visualization based on the characteristics of data, techniques for Big Data visualization, tools and use cases in the LD context, and, finally, a thorough assessment of the usability of these tools under different scenarios. The purpose of this book is to offer a complete guide to the evolution of LD visualization for interested readers from any background and empower them to get started with the visual analysis of such data. The book can serve as a course textbook or as a primer for everyone who wants to explore and analyze LD, whether undergraduate and post-graduate students, data scientists, semantic technology developers, or UI & UX designers who wish to gain some practical experience with LD tools. Previous knowledge of Semantic Web technologies such as RDF, OWL, SPARQL, or programming skills is not required.
