LOBI

I have been working on the datacube browser for the Linked Open Biomedical Investigation (LOBI).  I added a parallel coordinates graph underneath the existing scatter plot matrix, as shown below:



I used a similar framework as outlined two posts ago, which includes the k-means clustering.  The datacube browser allows a user to select specific dimensions.  Then a scatter plot matrix, which shows a scatter plot for every pair of dimensions, and a parallel coordinates chart are constructed.  The year can also be specified by the slider at the bottom.  Each time the dimensions or years are changed, the charts are redrawn.

I still have some minor problems to fix on the parallel coordinates graph.  After I fix these I am going to start teaching myself about RDF and Sparql.
