Title: The application of Space Filling Curves in information visualization Abstract: A space-filling curve (SFC) is a continuous curve that passes through every cell element in the n-dimensional space so that every cell is visited only once. SFCs have been extensively used as a mapping scheme from the multi-dimensional space into the one-dimensional space The talk will briefly describe how to apply SFC in information visualization. And several examples of applying different SFCs on different data sets are also presented.
