This chapter discusses some possible ways of how professionals, researchers and users representing various knowledge domains are collecting and visualizing big data sets. First it describes communication through senses as a basis for visualization techniques, computational solutions for enhancing senses and ways of enhancing senses by technology. The next part discusses ideas behind visualization of data sets and ponders what is and what not visualization is. Further discussion relates to data visualization through art as visual solutions of science and mathematics related problems, documentation objects and events, and a testimony to thoughts, knowledge and meaning. Learning and teaching through data visualization is the concluding theme of the chapter. Edoardo L'Astorina provides visual analysis of best practices in visualization: An overlay of Google Maps that showed all the arrival times - in real time - of all the buses in your area based on your location and visual representation of all the Tweets in the world about TfL (Transport for London) tube lines to predict disruptions.

Advances in data science, such as data mining, data visualization, and machine learning, are extremely well-suited to address numerous questions in the organizational sciences given the explosion of available data. Despite these opportunities, few scholars in our field have discussed the specific ways in which the lens of our science should be brought to bear on the topic of big data and big data's reciprocal impact on our science. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the big data phenomenon and its potential for impacting organizational science in both positive and negative ways. We identifying the biggest opportunities afforded by big data along with the biggest obstacles, and we discuss specifically how we think our methods will be most impacted by the data analytics movement. We also provide a list of resources to help interested readers incorporate big data methods into their existing research. Our hope is that we stimulate interest in big data, motivate future research using big data sources, and encourage the application of associated data science techniques more broadly in the organizational sciences.

Networks are all around us. Graph structures are established in the core of every network system therefore it is assumed to be understood as graphs as data visualization objects. Those objects grow from abstract mathematical paradigms up to information insights and connection channels. Essential metrics in graphs were calculated such as degree centrality, closeness centrality, betweenness centrality and page rank centrality and in all of them describe communication inside the graph system. The main goal of this research is to look at the methods of visualization over the existing Big data and to present new approaches and solutions for the current state of Big data visualization. This paper provides a classification of existing data types, analytical methods, techniques and visualization tools, with special emphasis on researching the evolution of visualization methodology in recent years. Based on the obtained results, the shortcomings of the existing visualization methods can be noticed.

The pharmacoinformation approach to the assessment and modeling of drugs involves the use of modern methods of data mining. These methods include: 1) analysis of big data (selection of texts of scientific publications, search for new biomarkers); 2) computer analysis of texts (automatic classification of texts by content, identification of pseudoscientific texts); 3) analysis of metric maps (visualization and analysis of complex patterns, including clustering) and 4) chemoinformation analysis, including the assessment of the effect of drugs on the transcriptome, proteome and microbiome of a person. The article provides examples of the application of these methods of pharmacoinformatics to chondroprotectors containing standardized forms of chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate.

Evaluators worldwide are dealing with a growing amount of unstructured electronic data, predominantly in textual format. Currently, evaluators analyze textual Big Data primarily using traditional content analysis methods based on keyword search, a practice that is limited to iterating over predefined concepts. But what if evaluators cannot define the necessary keywords for their analysis? Often we should examine trends in the way certain organizations have been operating, while our raw data are gigabytes of documents generated by that organization over decades. The problem is that in many cases we do not know what exactly we need to look for. In such cases, traditional analytical machinery would not provide an adequate solution within reasonable time—instead, heavy-lifting Big Data Science should be applied. We propose an automated, quantitative, user-friendly methodology based on text mining, machine learning, and data visualization, which assists researchers and evaluation practitioners to reveal trends, trajectories, and interrelations between bits and pieces of textual information in order to support evaluation. Our system automatically extracts a large amount of descriptive terminology for a particular domain in a given language, finds semantic connections between documents based on the extracted terminology, visualizes the entire document repository as a graph of semantic connections, and leads the user to the areas on that graph where most interesting trends can be observed. This article exemplifies the new method on 1700 performance reports, showing that the method can be used successfully, supplying evaluators with highly important information which cannot be revealed using other methods. Such exploratory exercise is vital as a preliminary exploratory phase for evaluations involving unstructured Big Data, after which a range of evaluation methods can be applied. We argue that our system can be successfully implemented on any domain evaluated.
