Visual Analysis of Sorting and Classification of Multidimensional Data
An important work of data analysis is to identify correlation structures and classify the data in unlabeled high-dimensional data, which usually requires iterative experiments on clustering parameters, attribute weights and instances. For a large dataset, the number of clusters may be huge, and it is a great challenge to explore in this huge space. People usually have a more comprehensive understanding of some data. For example, they think that data A is better than data B, but they do not know which attributes are important. Therefore, a powerful interactive analysis tool can help people greatly improve the effectiveness of exploratory clustering analysis. This paper provides a visual analysis method for sorting and classifying multivariate data. It can determine the weight of each attribute through user’s interaction, thus, generating sorting, and then complete classification according to sorting results. Through visual display, users can understand the characteristics of data as well as category characteristics intuitively and quickly, and it helps users improve sorting and classification results.
