Abstract: An improved data exploration system and method that can be used to analyze and to explore complex data sets involving multiple data dimensions and multi-variable data presentations. The data exploration system generates visual representations of complex data sets in map, table, and tree view formats. In each of these view formats, both the appearance and the arrangement of the symbols representing the data sets are based on the data itself to facilitate the comprehension of patterns and information relationships within the data sets. Further, the data can be viewed at different levels of density to perform detailed analysis of the data, and to detect the presence of overall trends within the data. Moreover, the data exploration system performs a suite of calculation operations to cast the data in different forms, and to facilitate the acquisition, integration, and analysis of the data.

Abstract: An improved data exploration system and method for analyzing and exploring complex data sets involving multiple data dimensions and multi-variable data presentations. The system can generate visual representations of complex data sets in a map format, in which symbols representing the complex data sets are plotted based on data underlying the various symbols. The positions of a first set of symbols can be plotted in the map format relative to a first axis based on the data underlying each symbol, and index numbers corresponding to a second set of symbols can be plotted in the map format along a second axis orthogonal to the first axis, thereby facilitating visual comparison and comprehension of selected characteristics of the data.
