glue (spelled with a lower-case "g") is a linked-view data visualization package written in python.[1].

This article is about the visualization software. For other software, see Glue (disambiguation).

glue, as working visualization software, was created and realized in 2012, after being described as a work-in-progress in Principles of High-Dimensional Data Visualization in Astronomy. [2]

Using glue, users can create scatter plots, histograms and images (2D and 3D) of their data. glue is focused on the brushing and linking paradigm, where selections in any graph propagate to all others. glue uses the logical links that exist between different data sets to overlay visualizations of different data, and to propagate selections across data sets. These links are specified by the user, and are arbitrarily flexible, Glue is written in Python, and built on top of its standard scientific libraries (i.e., Numpy, Matplotlib, Scipy). Users can easily integrate their own python code for data input, cleaning, and analysis. glue is distributed as part of the Anaconda_(Python_distribution).
