  abstract =   "Caricatures are pieces of art depicting persons or
               sociological conditions in a non-veridical way. In both
               cases caricatures are referring to a reference model. The
               deviations from the reference model are the characteristic
               features of the depicted subject. Good caricatures
               exaggerate the characteristics of a subject in order to
               accent them. The concept of caricaturistic visualization is
               based on the caricature metaphor. The aim of caricaturistic
               visualization is an illustrative depiction of
               characteristics of a given dataset by exaggerating
               deviations from the reference model. We present the general
               concept of caricaturistic visualization as well as a variety
               of examples. We investigate different visual representations
               for the depiction of caricatures. Further, we present the
               caricature matrix, a technique to make differences between
               datasets easily identifiable.",
