Algebraic visual analysis: the Catalano phone call data set case study

While many clever techniques have been proposed for visual analysis, most of these are “one of” and it is not easy to see how to combine multiple techniques. We propose an algebraic model capable of representing a large class of visual analysis operations on graph data. We demonstrate the value of this model by showing how it can simulate the analyses performed by several groups on the Catalano family cell phone call record data set as part of the VAST 2008 challenge.
