Abstract
Technology for rendering representations of multi-faceted data are disclosed. As one example, the technology includes organizing and rendering multiple subsets of a dataset according to temporal or other linear attributes, e.g., for visual comparison and/or other visualization. A collection of subsets may be determined in response to a selection of a facet having multiple facet attributes. Each subset may include the entries of the dataset that have the facet attribute corresponding to that subset. Optionally, the multiple subsets may be rendered in alignment with corresponding portions of a hierarchical depiction, e.g., to visually represent the parameters of the subsets.
