ABSTRACT:
Multi-dimensional objects or data may be represented in two dimensions, thereby facilitating understanding of the information or data. This reduction in the number of dimensions is accomplished by constructing unit vectors corresponding to the dimensions, in which the unit vectors share a common plane. Information objects or multi-dimensional data are plotted and represented as small features such as points on a display tied to a processor or computer. A user may gain insight into how the information is structured by performing certain transformations on it, such as scaling one (or more) unit vectors or rotating one or more unit vectors, followed by replotting the points.
