Andrew Blake’s current research interest centres on the efficacy of Euler diagrams. Currently there exists a lack of insight into which properties yield effective Euler diagrams. Effective, in the context of this research, is the time it takes to elicit information from a diagram and the accuracy of the information obtained. This research is focused on orientation, shape and colour properties of diagrams and employs an empirical methodology to determine the impact of these properties upon efficacy. Andrew is a member of the Visual Modelling Research Group with teaching interests in the areas of 3D modelling and animation.Personal web page
