Whether an illustrative diagram is needed or not depends on the background knowledge of the readers of your work and the need of your effective presentation. Also, learning from the successful papers from your community can help form a gauge to evaluate the quality of your illustrative diagrams.

Clear, detailed, and thorough labeling should be used to defeat graphical distortion and ambiguity

Use colors wisely

Rods• ~115,000,000• Concentrated on the periphery of the retina• Sensitive to intensity• Most sensitive at 500 nm (~green)
Cones• ~7,000,000• Concentrated near the center of the retina• Sensitive to color• Three of cones: long(~red), medium (~green), and short (~blue) wavelengths

Use good contrast as human eye is good at difference

ΔL* of about 0.40 makes good contrast

Do Not Attempt to Fight Pre-EstablishedColor Meanings

Use the Right Transfer Function Color Scaleto Represent a Range of Scalar Values
• Gray scale• Intensity Interpolation• Saturation interpolation• Two-color interpolation• Rainbow scale• Heated object interpolation• Blue-White-Red
Given any 2 colors, make it intuitively obvious which represents “higher” and which represents “lower”
Low High

Much of the total dynamic range of thecolor scale is used up in the first smallpercent of the visualization, leaving little for the rest of the visualization

• Limit the total number of colors if viewers are to discern information quickly.
• Be aware that our perception of color changes with: 1) surrounding color; 2) how close two objects are; 3) how long you have been staring at the color; 4)sudden changes in the color intensity.
• Beware of Mach Banding.
• Be Aware of Color Vision Deficiencies (CVD)
Other Rules…
It is not possible to list all the useful rules. They come with a lot of experience!

Beware of Color Pollution
Just because you have millions of colors to choose from
