Cluster Appearance Glyphs: A Methodology for Illustrating High-Dimensional Data Patterns in 2-D Data Layouts
Two-dimensional space embeddings such as Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) are a popular means to gain insight into high-dimensional data relationships.However, in all but the simplest cases these embeddings suffer from significant distortions, which can lead to misinterpretations of the high-dimensional data.These distortions occur both at the globa
