Abstract Text Rankings serve to structure large datasets. They are an integral part of decision-making in various fields. To address the complex task of interpreting and comparing ranking algorithms and the results they produce, we created a Visual Analytics (VA) tool called RankViz. This prototype allows users to visualize and explore the output of various ranking algorithms and includes multiple metrics to assess the quality and differences of the rankings. The pairwise comparison data we used to construct the rankings was collected in a previous study by Barth et al. This thesis reviews different ranking algorithms, details the functionality of RankViz, demonstrates its utility with usage scenarios, and discusses potential future work in this field.
