Abstract
A method, system, and/or computer program product processes a data plot comprising a plurality of data points for inclusion of additional information content. A space of the data plot is divided into subspaces, where each subspace contains at least one data point of the data plot. An available area on a display for each subspace is computed, and then a compressed information representation for each subspace is computed based on information about at least one data point contained in each subspace and a computed available area for each subspace. An available area of each subspace is computed based on a maximum size of a shape that can fit within each subspace, where the shape is centered on a barycenter of each subspace. The data plot is displayed, where each unit of compressed information is displayed adjacent to a corresponding group of data points from the data plot.
