High-Dimensional Data Visualization via Dual-View Interaction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional dimension reduction techniques for visualizing high-dimensional data either result in significant loss and distortion when converting to two-dimensional data or are limited to only two or three-dimensional visualization, lacking flexibility and clarity in data analysis.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that primarily visualize high-dimensional data in a lower dimension, such as two dimensions, and secondarily visualize it in a higher dimension within selected regions of interest, allowing for interactive manipulation and analysis, including enlargement, reduction, and rotation, to enhance data understanding and analysis.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If high-dimensional data is visualized in two dimensions, then immediacy of visualized image and convenience in interaction are improved, but data loss and distortion increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dual-view visualization system that displays both 2D and 3D representations of high-dimensional data simultaneously. The 2D view provides immediate visual feedback and interaction convenience, while the 3D view preserves more data information with reduced distortion. Users can switch between or combine both views to benefit from the strengths of each dimensionality representation.
2Loss of information
If high-dimensional data is visualized in three dimensions, then data loss and distortion are reduced, but immediacy of visualized image and convenience in interaction decrease
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dual-view visualization system that displays both 2D and 3D representations of high-dimensional data simultaneously. The 2D view provides immediate visual feedback and interaction convenience, while the 3D view preserves more data information with reduced distortion. Users can switch between or combine both views to benefit from the strengths of each dimensionality representation.
3Adaptability or versatility
If conventional dimension reduction technique is used, then high-dimensional data can be visualized, but flexibility in dimension selection is limited

AI summary
A method and an apparatus are provided to visualize high-dimensional data. The method includes primarily visualizing the high-dimensional data at a dimension lower than the high-dimensional data to obtain a primarily-visualized image. The method also includes secondarily visualizing the high-dimensional data in an area of the primarily-visualized image at a dimension higher than the primarily-visualized image to obtain a secondarily-visualized image.
