Visualization of Multi-variate Scientific Data

R. Bürger and H. Hauser

Abstract

In this state-of-the-art report we discuss relevant research works related to the visualization of complex, multi-variate data. We focus on ''non-classical'' approaches, i.e. approaches which haven't been discussed in previous related reports, and we highlight techniques which potentially lead towards new directions in visualization research. We discuss how different techniques take effect at specific stages of the visualization pipeline and how they apply to multi-variate data sets being composed of scalars, vectors, and tensors. We also provide a categorization of these techniques in the aim for a better overview of related approaches. In the second part of this paper we take a look at recent techniques that are useful for the visualization of complex data sets either because they are general purpose or because they can be adapted to specific problems.
