More Flexible Radial Layout

More Flexible Radial Layout

We describe an algorithm for radial layout of undirected graphs, in which nodes are constrained to the circumferences of a set of concentric circles around the origin. Such constraints frequently occur in the layout of social or policy networks, when structural centrality is mapped to geometric centrality, or when the primary intention of the layout is the display of the vicinity of a distingui...

Extended Radial Basis Functions: More Flexible and Effective Metamodeling

Animated Exploration of Graphs with Radial Layout

We describe a new animation technique for supporting interactive exploration of a graph, building on the wellknown radial tree layout method. When a node is selected to become the center of interest, our visualization performs an animated transition to a new layout. Our approach is to linearly interpolate the polar coordinates of the nodes, while enforcing constraints on the layout to keep the ...

Visualizing MeSH Dataset using Radial Tree Layout

Many display layout techniques were developed for the visualization of hierarchical data set like Cone tree, Treemap, Hyperbolic tree etc. Here, we present a new focus + context (fisheye) technique for visualizing and manipulating large hierarchies. We use the well knows radial tree layout method, in which focused node is placed in center of display, and all other nodes are rendered on appropri...

Flexible Graph Layout for the Web

More powerful personal computers and higher network bandwidth has meant that graphics has become increasingly important on the web. Graph-based diagrams are one of the most important types of structured graphical information. Here we demonstrate how XML can be used as basis for contents-based delivery of graph-based diagrams. The main distinguishing feature of our approach is that it separates ...
