Principles of high‐dimensional data visualization in astronomy [PDF]
AbstractAstronomical researchers often think of analysis and visualization as separate tasks. In the case of high‐dimensional data sets, though, interactiveexploratory data visualizationcan give far more insight than an approach where data processing and statistical analysis are followed, rather than accompanied, by visualization.
