Abstract

ILOG Discovery is an information visualization editor, which allows browsing the visualization design space of data sets. This editor relies on the definition of data-linear visualizations, which are a very large class of visualizations that are defined from a relatively small number of parameters. Visualizations that can be produced by the editor encompass histograms, parallel coordinates, treemaps, as well as mixes of those representation types, such as a parallel histogram embedded in a treemap, all with one single unified model.
