NAV: A tool for producing presentation-quality animations of graphical cognitive model dynamics

Trent Kriete, Matthew House, Bobby Bodenheimer, and David Noelle

Abstract

Computational models of cognition often exhibit complex dynamics that are difficult to discern without the use of visualization tools. Current visualization tools often provide insight only to the modeling expert, however, and they provide limited functionality for communi-cating model dynamics to the non-expert, as is needed during scientific presentations and in educational settings. We present NAV: an easy-to-use software tool which interactively transforms the output of cogni-tive modeling simulators into presentation-quality animations of model performance.
