饼图和树状图通常用于商业环境中，以显示部分到整体的关系。在一项研究中，当回答具有多个切片和不同值分布的部分到整体问题时，我们比较了饼图、树状图、堆叠条形图和两个圆形图表。我们fi发现，圆形图表，包括不寻常的变化，比树形图表现得更好，它们的表现取决于参与者被要求判断最大的部分还是较小的部分。
Pie charts and treemaps are commonly used in business settings to show part-to-whole relationships. In a study, we compare pie charts, treemaps, stacked bars, and two circular charts when answering part-to-whole questions with multiple slices and different distributions of values. We find that the circular charts, including the unusual variations, perform better than the treemap, and that their performance depends on whether participants are asked to judge the largest slice or a smaller one.
