Sun-Joo Shin

Yale University, USA
Sun-Joo produced one of the seminal pieces of work in logic-based diagrammatic reasoning, when she proved that a system of reasoning rules on Venn-Peirce diagrams was sound and complete. We are working with Sun-Joo on investigating the relationships between abstract and concrete diagrams.

Judith Masthoff

University of Aberdeen, UK
Judith is currently working with us on developing techniques to automatically produce readable proofs in Euler diagram and spider diagram systems. She has also run experiments to test the understandability of constraint diagrams.

Stuart Kent

Microsoft, Cambridge, UK
Stuart was the inventor of the original constraint diagram notation. We have worked with Stuart on developing, using and reasoning with the notations. We worked with Stuart on the EPSRC-funded project Reasoning with Diagrams. He is overseeing the development of the tool framework. He is a co-author of the tutorial Advanced Visual Modeling.
