Abstract

The talk describes several techniques used to visualize among other aspects
the productivity of rule sets in deriving non-standard spellings. The treemap
or similar visualizations help find typical replacement sequences depending
on the localization of the spellings and their epoch. The study conducted 
proves that treemaps ease the understanding of rule hierarchies, the 
detection of productive and non productive rules and the evaluation of a
rule’s importance. They also provide better search performance.
 
An interactive visualization over a map is showing isoglosses running 
between different regions of Germany and clusters text samples of different
epochs and their writings.
Furthermore, allograph variants are displayed using adequate data types.
