A recent collaboration between the College of Agriculture Research Services team and Dr. Deandrae Smith\u2019s PROPEL lab<\/a> transformed a publication hurdle into a visual storytelling innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At ABASE 2022, Dr. Smith presented research on one-pass drying of rough rice using RF heating. While the findings were robust, the data visualizations were not compact or clear enough for journal publication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dry<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The team developed a novel visualization technique\u2014the \u201cGewgaw Grid\u201d\u2014along with supporting algorithms to present experimental outcomes across multiple dimensions. The method displays all results at a glance, highlights medians, and visualizes the distribution of measurements both within treatments and across the entire dataset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result: a visually appealing, data-dense visualization that clarifies and elevates the research impact. Prof. Smith plans to use this technique in future presentations and publications, and the PROPEL lab has begun adopting the Gewgaw Grid for other ongoing projects.\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n
