In this work, we present an interactive visual clustering approach for the exploration and analysis of datasets using the computational power of Graphics Processor Units (GPUs). The visualization is based on a collective behavioral model that enables cognitive amplification of information visualization. In this way, the workload of understanding the representation of information moves from the cognitive to the perceptual system. The results enable a more intuitive, interactive approach to the discovery of knowledge. The paper illustrates this behavioral model for clustering data, and applies it to the visualization of a number of real and synthetic datasets.
