Introduction

da das Erkennen von nicht vorhandenen Mustern ja ausgeschlossen werden soll, würde ich es umformulieren:

Information visualization provides tools to show new relations in data. While this technique can be very effictive, it is threatened by apophenia, the human capability to detect patterns in random noise. Statistics instead provides methods that can examine if an assumption can be approved by the given data sample, and is therefore used to expose invalid hypotheses. Graphical inference tries to find a balance between these two methods: information visualisation to improve identification of new hypotheses, and statistics to reveal faulty conclusions.

The authors present two experimental protocols, Rorschach and Line-Up, which show how both techniques can be combined.
