چکیده

The hierarchical edge bundle method clusters the graph edges to better understand and analyze graphs, but its effectiveness relies critically on the quality of the hierarchical organization of its nodes and edges. This paper proposes a novel graph visualization approach that extracts the community structure of a network and organizes it into a more balanced and meaningful hierarchy so that its edge bundle rendering better indicates its structure. Results on several data sets demonstrate that this approach clarifies realworld communication, collaboration and competition network structure and reveals information missed in previous visualizations.

Hierarchial edge bundles for general graphs

The hierarchical edge bundle method clusters the edges of a radial layout to better understand and analyze graphs, but its effectiveness relies critically on the quality of the hierarchical organization of its nodes and edges. This paper proposes a novel graph visualization approach that extracts the community structure of a network and organizes it into a more balanced and meaningful hierarchy...

On Zagreb Energy and edge-Zagreb energy

In this paper, we obtain some upper and lower bounds for the general extended energy of a graph. As an application, we obtain few bounds for the (edge) Zagreb energy of a graph. Also, we deduce a relation between Zagreb energy and edge-Zagreb energy of a graph $G$ with minimum degree $delta ge2$. A lower and upper bound for the spectral radius of the edge-Zagreb matrix is obtained. Finally, we ...

Image-Based Edge Bundles: Simplified Visualization of Large Graphs

We present a new approach aimed at understanding the structure of connections in edge-bundling layouts. We combine the advantages of edge bundles with a bundle-centric simplified visual representation of a graph’s structure. For this, we first compute a hierarchical edge clustering of a given graph layout which groups similar edges together. Next, we render clusters at a user-selected level of ...

MORE ON EDGE HYPER WIENER INDEX OF GRAPHS

‎Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a simple connected graph with vertex set V(G) and edge‎ ‎set E(G)‎. ‎The (first) edge-hyper Wiener index of the graph G is defined as‎: ‎$$WW_{e}(G)=sum_{{f,g}subseteq E(G)}(d_{e}(f,g|G)+d_{e}^{2}(f,g|G))=frac{1}{2}sum_{fin E(G)}(d_{e}(f|G)+d^{2}_{e}(f|G)),$$‎ ‎where de(f,g|G) denotes the distance between the edges f=xy and g=uv in E(G) and de(f|G)=∑g€(G)de(f,g|G). ‎In thi...

Sufficient conditions on the zeroth-order general Randic index for maximally edge-connected digraphs

Let D be a digraph with vertex set V(D) .For vertex v V(D), the degree of v, denoted by d(v), is defined as the minimum value if its out-degree  and its in-degree . Now let D be a digraph with minimum degree  and edge-connectivity If  is real number, then the zeroth-order general Randic index is defined by   .  A digraph is maximally edge-connected if . In this paper we present sufficient condi...
