I will be describing Slycat, a web-based system for performing data analysis and visualization of potentially large quantities of remote, high-dimensional data. Slycat specializes in working with ensemble data. An ensemble is a group of related data sets, which are typically a set of simulation runs exploring a shared problem space. An ensemble can be thought of as a set of samples defined on a common set of variables, where each sample is a vector of values defining a point in high-dimensional space. Ensemble analysis looks at the shared behaviors and common features of the group in an effort to understand and describe the underlying problem domain. Additionally, ensemble analysis tries to quantify any differences found in members that deviate from the rest of the group.
