RESUMO
In the last decades the capacity of information generation and accumulation increased quickly. With the explosive growth in the volume of data, new techniques and tools are being sought to process it and to automatically discover useful information from it, leading to techniques known as Knowledge Discovery in Databases KDD where, in general, data mining DM techniques play an important role. The results of applying data mining techniques on datasets are highly dependent on proper data preparation. Therefore, in traditional DM processes, data goes through a pre-processing step that results in just one table that is submitted to mining. An important problem faced during this step is that, most of the times, the analyst doesnt have a clear idea of what portions of data should be mined. This work reckons the strong ability of human beings to interpret data represented in graphical format, to develop a technique to visualize data from multiple tables, helping human analysts when preparing data to DM. This technique allows the data mining process to be applied over multiple relations at once, bringing the join operations to become part of this process. In general, the use of multiple tables in DM tools is not practical, due to the high computational cost required to explore them. Experimental evaluation of the proposed technique shows that it reduces this cost significantly, turning it possible to visually explore data from multiple tables in an interactive way.
