The primary objective of this project is to develop new software tools that utilize laser graphics to help the clinical investigator perceive significant information in clinical research datasets. The Phase I activities, performed in collaboration with investigators at the Harvard School of Public Health, identified a specific novel software concept, a "MultiGraph Visualization Tool", that appears to be distinctly useful in exploring multivariate data to detect differences between subpopulations in cancer studies. The proposed Phase II work will use the statistical graphics concepts and software architecture from Phase I to develop a full software prototype which will be evaluated and refined through interaction with investigators from several clinical research centers. At completion, the prototype will become the basis of a privately-funded Phase III commercialization effort to make this capability broadly available to the clinical research community. The major technical innovation in this project is expected to be the development of visualization software oriented towards laser printer presentations of large volumes of clinical research data. The major health-related contribution is hoped to be the generation of clinical insights through the increased ability of the investigator, assisted by the new software, to notice important patterns in clinical data.

该项目的主要目标是开发新的软件工具 利用激光图形来帮助临床研究人员感知 临床研究数据集中的重要信息。第一阶段 活动，与调查人员合作在 哈佛大学公共卫生学院，发现了一种特定的新型软件 概念，一个“多重图形可视化工具”，它似乎是 在探索多变量数据以检测差异方面非常有用 在癌症研究中的亚群之间。 拟议的第二阶段工作将使用统计图形概念 并从软件体系结构第一阶段开始开发完整的软件 原型将通过交互进行评估和改进 来自几个临床研究中心的研究人员。在完成时， 原型将成为私人资助的第三阶段的基础 商业化努力，使这一功能广泛适用于 临床研究界。 预计该项目的主要技术创新将是 面向激光打印机的可视化软件开发 展示大量临床研究数据。少校 希望与健康相关的贡献是临床上的一代 通过提高调查人员的能力来洞察情况，并得到协助 通过新的软件，注意临床数据中的重要模式。
