Sample text

A 2D statistical table (as in Figure 4), with the adding of columns and rows that show summarization over rows and columns respectively, is an example of these models. These totals are often referred to by statisticians as "marginals" (because they appear on the "margins" of tables). The marginals are usually not included in the database if they can be derived. However, in situations where summarizability does not hold, it is necessary to store these values in the database as well. It is generally not efficient to compute the marginals for very large datasets.

Consider, for example, the table "Employment in California" classified by "sex," "year," and by "professional categories"—"Professions" (the numbers are fictitious), taken from Rafanelli & Shoshani (1990) and shown in Figure 4. Figure 4: The 2-D Representation of a Multidimensional MADS It is obvious from this example that the values of average income are given for specific combinations of "sex," "year," and "profession" only. Thus, "professional category" is not part of the multi-dimensional space of this statistical object, but part of a "hierarchical" classification relationship, "professional categories" → "professions" (where the notation → means a one-to-many relationship).

Multidimensional Array (cube): This is a group of data cells arranged by the dimensions of the data. An example of a two-dimensional array is a spreadsheet, with the data cells arranged in rows and columns, each being a dimension. An example of a three-dimensional array is a cube, a physical metaphor of a multidimensional visualization of the data. Each dimension of the cube forms a side. A higher dimensional array has no physical metaphor, but they organize the data in the same way that users think of their enterprise.
