Reading
Inselberg (Inselberg 1997) made a full review of how to visually read out parallel coords' relational patterns. When most lines between two parallel axis are somewhat parallel to each others, that suggests a positive relationship between these two dimensions. When lines cross in a kind of superposition of X-shapes, that's negative relationship. When lines cross randomly or are parallel, that show there is no particular relationship.

Famous quotes containing the word reading:
“There are women in middle life, whose days are crowded with practical duties, physical strain, and moral responsibility ... they fail to see that some use of the mind, in solid reading or in study, would refresh them by its contrast with carking cares, and would prepare interest and pleasure for their later years. Such women often sink into depression, as their cares fall away from them, and many even become insane. They are mentally starved to death.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
