Abstract
The Star Plot approach to high-dimensional data visualization is applied to multi-attribute dichotomies. It is observed that the areas of the plot for the two parts of a dichotomy may be used as an aggregate measure of their relative dominance. An optimization model is developed to determine a topology (or weighted configuration of the attributes) that maximizes the resolution of this measure with respect to a given set of reference dichotomies.
