Abstract

The Parallel Coordinates plot is a popular tool for the visualization of high-dimensional data. One of the main challenges whenusing parallel coordinates is occlusion and overplotting resulting from large data sets. Brushing is a popular approach to address thesechallenges. Since its conception, lim...
