Binding Visualization Method and Numeric Method Together to Analyze Large Data - With a Case Study

In this paper, the authors combine a data visualization method and a numeric analysis method, binding them together to analyze large data (Big Data). Also included is a case study selected from the water transportation industry – A port on the Yangtze River and its annual import & export productivity (104 tons /year) – used to show how our methods work step by step. Theoretical and practical efforts in this paper suggest that the proposed methods (or algorithms) are efficient for data analysis and data prediction.
