Ordinalysis: Interpretability of multidimensional ordinal data

Abstract

Ordinalysis is a software that enables dimension reduction, visualization and quantitative ordinality analysis of ordinal data. It is provided as a standalone executable file with a video tutorial. Applications of the software are shown on an ordinal synthetic dataset, ordinal real feature spaces and an ordinal image dataset. Ordinalysis allows the detection of violations of ordinality, the selection of the dimension reduction to preserve ordinality best or the demonstration of existing semantic ordinality in a set of raw data
