Abstract

Provided are, among other things, systems, methods and techniques for facilitating visual analysis of data relationships. Initially, a set of data values is obtained, and a graphical display of the data values is output, with different display points corresponding to different data values. A user selection of an area encompassing at least a portion of the graphical display is input, and data correlation analyses are performed between data values within the selected area other sets of data values. Graphs are then displayed based on results of the data correlation analyses.
