Abstract

While at least some standard graphical tools do exist for cardinal time series analysis, little research effort has been given directed towards the visualization of categorical time series. The repertoire of such visual methods is nearly exclusively restricted to few isolated proposals from computer science and biology. This article aims at presenting a toolbox of known and newly developed approaches for analysing given categorical time series data visually. Among these tools, especially the rate evolution graph, the circle transformation, pattern histograms and control charts are promising.
