Paper abstract:

More and more data sources are giving us higher-dimensional 
data, and techniques are needed to probe and display patterns 
in this data.  This paper demonstrates the technique of 
mapping 4-D data onto a 3-D tesseract (4-D hypercube 
projected  into 3-D space) and using isosurfaces to visualize 
data in the resulting irregular volumes.

Keywords: visualization, four dimensional, hypercube,
          tesseract, isosurface
