The Data Interaction and Visualization Lab, in short DIV-Lab is an interdisciplinary research laboratory located in the School of Computer Science at the University of Oklahoma, Norman. We specialize in Data Visualization, Perception and Cognition Science, Computer Graphics, and applied Artificial Intelligence. Our primary focus is on creating visual representations and interfaces that enhance understanding, interaction, and development of computational models. The DIV-Lab explores the intersection of data science, visual cognition, and computer graphics in order to understand how people make sense of visual information, and then leverage that knowledge to design innovative visualization systems that drive discovery across a wide range of domains, from psychology to communication to topology. Our ultimate mission is to facilitate the dialog between people and technologies, enabling discovery and advancing the state of the art in visual design and data interpretation. Through close collaboration with scholars and researchers, we strive to create interfaces and tools that empower users to explore, analyze, and gain valuable insights from complex data.
