Introduction

This book contains my notes for the "Information Visualization" (CS-GY 6313) course that I had taken at NYU Tandon School of Engineering in the Fall of 2018, toward my MS in Computer Science.

The contents of this book have been acquired from several sources, including the material provided by Prof. Enrico Bertini.
