FATTORE, MARCO; ARCAGNI, ALBERTO  y  BARBERIS, STEFANO. Visualizing Partially Ordered Sets for Socioeconomic Analysis. Rev.Colomb.Estad. [online]. 2014, vol.37, n.2, pp.437-450. ISSN 0120-1751.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rce.v37n2spe.47948.

In this paper, we develop a visualization process for partial orders derived from considering many numerical indicators on a statistical population. The issue is relevant, particularly in the field of socio-economic evaluation, where explicitly taking into account incomparabilities among individuals proves much more informative than adhering to classical aggregative and compensative approaches, which collapse complexity into unidimensional rankings. We propose a process of visual analysis based on a combination of tools and concepts from partial order theory, multivariate statistics and visual design. We develop the process through a real example, based on data pertaining to regional competitiveness in Europe.
