WORKSHOP ON PARALLEL COORDINATES: Visual Multidimensional Geometry and its Applications ****************************************************** DATE/LOCATION: 9. September 2009, 13h-17h, CAB G11, ETH Zurich, Switzerland ABSTRACT With parallel coordinates (p-cs) the perceptual barrier imposed by our 3-dimensional habitation is breached enabling the visualization of multidimensional problems. In this workshop a panorama of highlights from the foundations to the most recent results, interlaced with applications and interactive demonstrations, will be intuitively developed. By learning to untangle patterns from p-cs displays a powerful knowledge discovery process has evolved. It is illustrated on real datasets together with guidelines for exploration and good query design.
