Analyzing Quantitative Databases: Image is Everything

Summary: Uses visualization and image-processing techniques over histograms to rank quantitative field subsets by relational structure, surfacing hypotheses for statistical testing. Scalable, sampling-friendly, multivariate, and comparable across datasets, unlike binary-association methods. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
