Abstract
There has been a growing interest in graphical display techniques for various kinds of multivariate data matrices over the past 25 years. The most well known of these include multidimensional scaling (Kruskal 1964a,b), classical scaling (Torgerson 1958), cluster analysis (Sneath 1957) and Chernoff’s faces (Chernoff 1973). Recent reviews of scaling (ordination) and cluster analysis are Greenacre and Underhill (1982) and Hawkins et al (1982) respectively.
