Parallel-coordinates plots represent multi-dimensional data as polylines crossing parallel axes. A point in Cartesian coordinates is mapped to a line in parallel-coordinates. As more axes are added, a line can be traced over all dimensions, which greatly facilitates the perception of multi-dimensional data.
