Visual and Interactive Descriptor Analysis


VIDEAN (Visual and Interactive DEscriptor ANalysis) is a software tool with the following features:

  • combines statistical methods with interactive visualizations for choosing a set of descriptors for predicting a target property is proposed.
  • domain expertise can be added to the feature selection process by means of an interactive visual exploration of data, and aided by statistical tools and metrics based on information theory.
  • coordinated visual representations are presented for capturing different relationships and interactions among descriptors, target properties and candidate subsets of descriptors.
