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.

Finite sample selection criteria for multinomial models

TL;DR: In this article, finite sample selection criteria are derived for the case of multinomial operating and approximating models based on the Kullback-Leibler, the Gaus and the Pearsonchisquared discrepancies and turn out to be crossvalidatory.
