中文摘要 評估圖形繪製（Graph Drawing）之美學時，近來的研究會提供給使用者所要繪製之圖形（Graph）的相鄰串列（Adjacency List），接著要求使用者使用繪圖軟體來繪製出此圖形的一個令他們滿意的繪圖。對稱性（Symmetry）是圖形繪製的一個重要的特性，然而過去此一研究方向尚未考慮具有對稱性的圖形的使用者繪圖之美學。因此，本研究主要著重於評估對稱圖形之使用者繪圖之美學。我們為受訪者提供兩個對稱圖形之相鄰串列，接著要求他們用繪圖軟體來繪製這兩個圖形。本研究分析使用者之繪圖中是否顯示出對稱性，並更進一步分析他們在繪圖過程中所偏好採用之美學。此外，本研究之實驗包括多個階段以分析受訪者是否具有繪製圖形對稱結構的潛在學習能力。本研究結果顯示，繪製對稱圖形時顯示對稱性可能比最小化邊交叉更重要，且大多數受訪者在經歷實驗階段後實質的增進了他們對於繪製對稱繪圖之能力。
英文摘要 In evaluating aesthetics of graph drawings, recent works have provided participants with an adjacency list of a graph and asked them to sketch a pleasing layout of the graph. However, this line of research has not considered aesthetics for user-sketched layouts of graphs with symmetries, which are an important property of a given graph drawing. Therefore, the work reported in this paper focuses on empirically evaluating aesthetics for user-sketched layouts of symmetric graphs. We provided participants adjacency lists of two symmetric graphs and asked them to sketch the two graphs. We analyzed whether symmetries were shown in user-sketched drawings, and further analyzed the aesthetics based on their drawing processes and drawing preferences. In addition, our experiment includes multiple stages to analyze whether the participants had the potential learning ability to draw symmetric structures of graphs. We found that in drawing symmetrical graphs, showing symmetry was likely considered more important than minimizing edge crossings, and that most participants made substantial progress in their ability to create symmetric drawings after going through the experimental stages.
