Perspective (graphical) towards the opposite vanishing point. Two-point perspective exists when the painting plate is parallel to a Cartesian scene in one axis (usually the z-axis) but not to the other two axes. If the scene being viewed consists solely of a cylinder sitting on a horizontal plane, no difference exists in the image of the cylinder between a one-point and two-point perspective. Two-point perspective has one set of lines parallel to the picture plane and two sets oblique to it. Parallel lines oblique to the picture plane converge to a vanishing point, which means that this set-up will require two vanishing
Parallel coordinates Parallel coordinates Parallel coordinates are a common way of visualizing high-dimensional geometry and analyzing multivariate data. To show a set of points in an "n"-dimensional space, a backdrop is drawn consisting of "n" parallel lines, typically vertical and equally spaced. A point in "n"-dimensional space is represented as a polyline with vertices on the parallel axes; the position of the vertex on the "i"-th axis corresponds to the "i"-th coordinate of the point. This visualization is closely related to time series visualization, except that it is applied to data where the axes do not correspond to points in time, and
