| dc.description | This paper extends a spreadsheet visualization technique by using layout information. The original approach identifies logically or semantically related cells by relying exclusively on the content of cells for identifying semantic classes. A disadvantage of semantic classes is that users have to supply parameters which describe the possible shapes of these blocks. The correct parametrization requires a certain degree of experience and is thus not suitable for untrained users. To avoid this constraint, the approach reported in this paper uses row/column-labels as well as common format information for locating areas with common, recurring semantics. Heuristics are provided to distinguish between cell groups with intended common semantics and cell groups related in an ad-hoc manner. | |
