Interactive Bivariate Mode Trees for Visual Structure Analysis

M. Florek and H. Hauser

Abstract

The number of modes in a kernel density estimation of a certaindata distribution is strongly dependent on the chosen scale parameter.In this paper, we present an interactive mode tree visualizationthat allows to visually analyze the modality structure of a datadistribution. Due to the branched structure of the bivariate modetree, composed of many curved arcs in 3D, we need to utilize advancedtechniques, including clutter removal through transparency,on demand outlier suppression or preservation, and best views, toimprove the legibility of the visualization mapping.
