Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis for Aiding Glyph Design

IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics
Glyph-based visualization is one of the main techniques for visualizing complex multivariate data. With small glyphs, data variables are typically encoded with relatively low visual and perceptual precision. Glyph designers have to contemplate the trade-offs in allocating visual channels when there is a large number of data variables.
