StorySets: Ordering Curves and Dimensions for Visualizing Uncertain Sets and Multi-Dimensional Discrete Data
April 2025 • Annika Bonerath, Wouter Meulemans, Martin Nöllenburg, Alexander Wolff
We propose a method for visualizing uncertain set systems, which differs from previous set visualization approaches that are based on certainty (an element either belongs to a set or not). Our method is inspired by storyline visualizations and parallel coordinate plots: (a) each element is represented by a vertical glyph, subdivided into bins that represent different levels of uncertainty; (b) each set is represented by an x-monotone curve that traverses element glyphs through the bins representing the level of un…
