This lecture introduces the fundamental concepts, methods, and techniques of information visualization. Students learn how to transform complex and abstract data into meaningful visual representations that support exploration, analysis, and decision-making. Topics include visual perception, data and task abstraction, visualization design principles, visual encoding techniques, interaction methods, and the evaluation of visualization systems. Through practical examples and exercises, students develop the skills to design, implement, and critically assess interactive visualizations for different data types and application domains.
