The human brain is not very well-equipped for analysing multidimensional data. In his doctoral dissertation, Mikko Berg, M.Sc.

One of the starting points of his work were the visualizations used in the online candidate selectors of MTV3 that placed candidates with similar opinions close to each other on a graphical map.
