Arc Diagrams: Visualizing Structure in StringsMartin WattenbergIBM ResearchOne Rogers StreetCambridge MA paper introduces a new visualization method, thearc diagram, which is capable of representing complexpatterns of repetition in string data. Arc diagramsimprove over previous methods such as dotplots becausethey scale efficiently for Strings that contain manyinstances of the same subsequence. This paper describesdesign and implementation issues related to arc diagramsand shows how they may be applied to visualize suchdiverse data as music, text, and compiled : string , sequence, visualization, arc diagram,music, text, code1. IntroductionFrom text to DNA to melodies, many data sets come inthe form of a string , or sequence of symbols. Just as withquantitative data, it is often desirable to perform graphicalexploratory analysis on a string to find importantstructural way to reveal a string s Structure is to exploit thefact that sequences often contain significant repeatedsubsequences.
