چکیده

We describe an attempt to overcome information overload through information visualization — in a particular domain, group memory. A brief review of information visualization is followed by a brief description of our methodology. We Ž . discuss our system, which uses multidimensional scaling MDS to visualize relationships between documents, and which Ž . we tested on 60 subjects, mostly students. We found three important and statistically significant differences between task performance on an MDS-generated display and on a randomly generated display. With some qualifications, we conclude that MDS speeds up and improves the quality of manual classification of documents and that the MDS display agrees with subject perceptions of which documents are similar and should be displayed together. q 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.

Scalable Dimension Reduction for Large Abstract Data Visualization

The ability to browse vast amounts of scientific data is critical to facilitate science discovery. High performance Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) algorithm makes it a reality by reducing dimensions so that scientists can gain insight into data set from a 3D visualization space. As multidimensional scaling requires quadratics order of physical memory and computation, a major challenge is to des...

Multidimensional Scaling for Evolutionary Algorithms - Visualization of the Path through Search Space and Solution Space Using Sammon Mapping

Multidimensional scaling as a technique for the presentation of high-dimensional data with standard visualization techniques is presented. The technique used is often known as Sammon mapping. We explain the mathematical foundations of multidimensional scaling and its robust calculation. We also demonstrate the use of this technique in the area of evolutionary algorithms. First, we present the v...
