Visualization of the gene expression data on a low-dimensional graph is helpful in uncovering biological information contained in the data. In this study, we focus on two modified versions of the parallel coordinate plot. First one is the ePCP(enhanced parallel coordinate plot) which shows "near smooth" connecting curves between axes spaced proportionately to the proximity of re-ordered variables. Second one is APCP(Andrews' type parallel coordinate plot) which is obtained by rotating Andrews' plot that has a form of the parallel coordinate plot. Visualization procdures using ePCP and APCP are given for the lymphoma data case.

The concept of 'spatial association' explains spatial distribution pattern of geographical phenomenon based on similarity with neighborhoods, as in the Tobler's Law of Geography: 'Everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things.' In this study, we develop a time-series exploratory analysis tool for discovering temporal patterns of spatial association by combining spatial statistics and geo-visualization, and thus present a possibility to support spatial decision-making process. As for the spatial proximity weight matrix indispensable to measuring global and local spatial association, we employ a variety of flexible weighting schemes using geometric characteristics of areal unit. In addition, we renovate the existing visualization methods for more effective understanding of the procedures and results of time-series analysis on spatial association: for instance, temporal parallel coordinate plot with box plot, animated map for spatial association, and 3D Moran scatterplot. The feasibility of our system is verified by time-series analysis experiments on the spatial association of land price fluctuation rate for all administrative units in Korea, $1995{\sim}2004$.
