AbstractThis richly illustrated book describes the use of interactive and dynamicgraphics as part of multidimensional data analysis. Chapters includeclustering, supervised classification, and working with missing values. Avariety of plots and interaction methods are used in each analysis, oftenstarting with brushing linked low-dimensional views and working up to manualmanipulation of tours of several variables. The role of graphical methods isshown at each step of the analysis, not only in the early exploratory phase,but in the later stages, too, when comparing and evaluating models.All examples are based on freely available software: GGobi for interactivegraphics and R for static graphics, modeling, and programming. The printedbook is augmented by a wealth of material on the web, encouraging readersfollow the examples themselves. The web site has all the data and codenecessary to reproduce the analyses in the book, along with moviesdemonstrating the examples.The book may be used as a text in a class on statistical graphics orexploratory data analysis, for example, or as a guide for the independentlearner. Each chapter ends with a set of exercises.The authors are both Fellows of the American Statistical Association, pastchairs of the Section on Statistical Graphics, and co-authors of the GGobisoftware. Dianne Cook is Professor of Statistics at Iowa State University.Deborah Swayne is a member of the Statistics Research Department at AT&T Labs.
