The interactive matrix chart

Published: 01 October 1992 Publication History

Abstract

This paper presents a method for mapping a table of quantitative data into a unique graphical presentation, called an interactive matrix chart. Each chart consists of a grid containing graphical marks in each of the cells, and these marks may vary in color, size, shape and other characteristics.The chart may be manipulated through both a simplification and a query mechanism. Simplifying the interactive matrix chart involves rearranging rows and columns of the chart. Querying the interactive matrix chart involves redesigning the individual marks meant to represent the underlying data. By simplifying and querying the interactive matrix chart, different patterns of marks are rendered, and, therefore, different relationships between the data are revealed.
