Future Work

My future work will still be evolving around the topic of visual analytics. I am currently developing a more effective tool for our visual algebra and extending the uncertainty model to incorporate the uncertain graph structure. In addition, I im- prove and implement the dimension reduction technique into a existing visualization system, such as R and Cytoscape. There are a number of functions that support user developed packages for both systems. Moreover, I am planing to extend the di- mension reduction method to a data mining method for high dimensional data with network structures. By incorporating the additional network structure, we hope to improve the predication rate for all observations.

This thesis has presented many practical methods that support different aspects of visual analytics, improving our ability to explore data both statistically and visually. The methods are not just computational, but also provide a mental framework that supports a data visual analytic process and stresses a mixture of human and machine
