Web-based interactive visualization of data cubes

Abstract

Data Cube is an effective technique for data mining. Because of the complex relationships among aggregation values of a data cube, designing an efficient method or tool to visualize the complex relationships becomes a challenging work in the data cube technique. Information visualization with computer graphics technology can help improving this process. Recently, we developed a Web-based interactive data cube visualization system that can be applied to visualize a single data cube or parallel data cubes conveniently on the Web. This paper presents the basic principle, structure and features of the system.
