Health Figures

Inspired by the hGraph, hFigures is a javascript library that aims to deliver a starting point for interactive health data visualization.

The file simple.html is an example using a small dataset comprising basic health measurements. It can also be navigated via the live version, which can be found here.

For a holistic visualization of a complex dataset, the file complex.html provides an overview of the library visualization capabilities.

The implementation and evaluation of this library has been published as a Software article in the BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making journal. The article is available online.

Please cite the article if you have used the library on your research work. DOI: 10.1186/s12911-016-0275-6

Live Demo

Currently we are working on having a permanent site were everyone could use a live demo of hFigures. At the moment, Petteri Ponsimaa from University of Oulu has applied the visualization to the frequent shopper dataset obtained from one of Finland's biggest retailers. He based the groups of measurements according to the Findiet 2012 survey. The recommended targets are according to the recommendations from the National Nutrition Council.
