RMAP: a system for visualizing data in multidimensional relevance space

摘要

We describe a prototype system, RMAP, for visualizing information distribution in a multidimensional relevance space. The information displayed consists of many ob- jects, a set of features likely to interest the user, and some function that measures the relevance level of every object to the vari- ous features. The goal is to provide the user with a comprehensible visualization of that information, where the exact relevance measures of the objects are not significant.
