Visualization in the Multiple Objective Decision-Making Framework

In this paper we describe various visualization techniques which have been used or which might be useful in the multiple objective decision making framework. Several of the ideas originate from statistics, especially multivariate statistics. Some techniques are simply for illustrating snapshots of a single solution or a set of solutions. Others are used as an essential part of the human-computer interface.
