Abstract

A solution is provided wherein the apparent dimensionality of a data set is reduced by ranking combinations of dimensions and parts of dimensions in terms of their suitability for mapping to the axes of a grid display. A user may then be presented with dense lower dimensional views of the data that are much easier to understand than sparse high dimensional views. The user may then make further refinements, groupings, and analyses as needed.
