Abstract

Data records are grouped into clusters according to attributes of the data records to be correlated. At least two of the clusters that satisfy a proximity criterion are merged. At least one ellipsoid is created for presentation in a scatter plot visualization based on the grouping and merging, the ellipsoid including pixels representing multiple corresponding data records. The ellipsoid has a characteristic based on a corresponding local correlation of the attributes of the data records represented by the ellipsoid. The characteristic of the ellipsoid is adjusted based on a direction of the local correlation.
