Semantic Interaction for Sense-making: Alex Endert at TEDxVirginiaTech

Alex Endert recently received his Ph.D. at Virginia Tech and his focus is visual analytics, information visualization, and how these apply to large displays. His contributions to visual analytics include "semantic interaction", combining the massive-data foraging abilities of statistical models with the sense-making abilities of analysts to support visual data exploration. He has also produced published research in areas such as visual perception, large display interaction techniques, cyber analytics, embodied interaction, human learning, and collaboration. Currently, he is focused on finding ways the user and the computer system can co-create knowledge by teaching and learning from each other.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
