Figure 2. Terms (in gray) and synthetic documents (colored to main categories) in the four main semantic dimensions. (a) and (b) plot the second dimension against the first dimension, where (b) enlarges the highlighted part of (a). (c) and (d) plot the third and fourth dimensions against the 1st dimension respectively.
