As is known, in image or appearance-based approaches such as conventional PCA, if there is severe local distortion such as partial occlusion in the object image, which is not usually existed in the training images, the performance of the classifier will drop down rapidly.

The "perfect" cartogram, says Dorling, would be one that also minimizes local distortion. "If you were to look in detail at a very small area of the cartogram, it should look very similar to a normal map," he says.
