本文介绍了一种新的可视化方法，帮助“北海道环境与儿童健康：畸形、发育和过敏研究”（“北海道研究”）的研究参与者有意义地了解环境化学物质与儿童健康和发育之间的关系。自2001年以来，北海道研究一直在调查化学品与儿童健康和发育之间的关系。虽然已经获得了许多结果，但由于研究对象的专业性，仅用传统的可视化方法很难理解。因此，本研究开发了一种新的可视化方法，使用支持向量机生成新的图形，通过利用每个参与者的可追溯数据，帮助研究参与者深入和实际地理解北海道研究的结果。并以17名大学生为实验对象，验证了所提出的图模型的有效性。结果证实，参与者认为提议的图表比传统的图表更能帮助他们理解图表信息。
This paper describes a new visualization method that helps research participants of “The Hokkaido Study on Environment and Children’s Health: Malformation, Development and Allergy”(“The Hokkaido Study”) understand the relationship between environmental chemicals and children's health and development in a meaningful way. The Hokkaido Study has been investigating the relationship between chemicals and children’s health and development since 2001. Although many results have been obtained, it is difficult for the research participants to understand them using only a conventional visualization method because they are specialized. Therefore, this research developed a new visualization method that uses a support-vector machine and generates a new graph to help the research participants deeply and practically understand The Hokkaido Study’s outcomes by utilizing the traceable data of each participant. Moreover, an experiment was conducted with 17 participants of university students to clarify the usefulness of the proposed graph model. The results verified that the participants felt the proposed graph helped them understand graph information better than the conventional graph did.
