TLDR
The Grammar of Graphics (GOG) as mentioned in this paper denotes a system with seven orthogonal components, i.e., there are seven graphical component sets whose elements are aspects of the general system and every combination of aspects in the product of all these sets is meaningful.Abstract:
The Grammar of Graphics, or GOG, denotes a system with seven orthogonal components. By orthogonal, we mean there are seven graphical component sets whose elements are aspects of the general system and that every combination of aspects in the product of all these sets is meaningful. This sense of the word orthogonality, a term used by computer designers to describe a combinatoric system of components or building blocks, is in some sense similar to the orthogonal factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA), where factors have levels and all possible combinations of levels exist in the ANOVA design. If we interpret each combination of features in a GOG system as a point in a network, then the world described by GOG is represented in a seven-dimensional rectangular lattice.read more

Automatic Y-axis Rescaling in Dynamic Visualizations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conduct a series of Mechanical Turk experiments to study the potential of dynamic axis rescaling and the factors that affect its effectiveness, and find that the appropriate rescaling policy is both task and data-dependent, and do not find one clear policy choice for all situations.

An L ¥ Norm Visual Classifier
TL;DR: A novel VDM environment framework is proposed that captures human interactions in visual processing of data as math- ematical structures and a novel classification algorithm is presented that is based on the proposed framework.

Statistical Methods for Research Workers
TL;DR: The prime object of as discussed by the authors is to put into the hands of research workers, and especially of biologists, the means of applying statistical tests accurately to numerical data accumulated in their own laboratories or available in the literature.

On the Theory of Scales of Measurement
TL;DR: The current issues will remain at 32 pages until a more adequate supply of paper is assured, due to a shortage of paper for Bacto-Agar research.
