Juxtaposition of hierarchical quantities with bipartite Krona charts
Year: 2017
Type: other
Abstract: Interactive implementations of hierarchical, radial space-filling displays, such as Sunburst or Krona charts, allow complex datasets to be displayed and explored intuitively. However, to date, these methods have lacked the facility to compare two datasets in a unified visualization, which has limited their usefulness for correlative exploration and assessment of controlled experiments. Here, we address these use cases with bipartite Krona charts, which allow two hierarchical datasets to be explored simultaneously. This allows differences between datasets to be observed easily while preserving the depth and detail inherent in these types of charts.
