Information Visualisation

Supervisor: Dr. Peter Tischer

 

People are very good at finding patterns in pictures but not so good at absorbing information quickly from screens full of numbers. Information Visualisation aims to turn information into pictures. The information may be about things that have many attributes and could therefore be regarded as being represented by points in a high dimensional space.  To turn this kind of information into pictures we need to project from a high dimensional space into a 2 dimensional space.  This project will investigate an approach which takes trianglse of points in the higher dimensional space and 'glues' the triangles onto a 2D plane.
