Construction of Line Densities for Parallel Coordinate Plots

摘要

The graphical representation of high dimensional data may be accomplished byusing the parallel coordinate plotting system. In such a representation point in Euclidian n-space are mapped into line segments in Euclidian 2-space by a projective transformation. This representation preserves much of the geometric structure found in hyperspace but not easily representable by other methods. In large data set applications, the graphical displays may be heavily overplotted like ordinary scatterplots yielding uninterpretable displays in this reprint. (Author) (kr)
