Poster: Force-Directed Layout for Euler Diagrams

چکیده
Euler diagrams are the only diagrams that intuitively represent containment, intersection and exclusion of data, but none of the current automatic diagram layout techniques produce good layouts in a reasonable time. We adopt a force-directed approach to automatically layout aesthetically pleasing Euler diagrams in a relatively fast time. A Java prototype demonstrates our novel force model.

متن کاملeulerForce: Force-directed Layout for Euler Diagrams
Euler diagrams use closed curves to represent sets and their relationships. They facilitate set analysis, as humans tend to perceive distinct regions when closed curves are drawn on a plane. However, current automatic methods often produce diagrams with irregular, nonsmooth curves that are not easily distinguishable. Other methods restrict the shape of the curve to for instance a circle, but su...
متن کاملImPrEd: An Improved Force-Directed Algorithm that Prevents Nodes from Crossing Edges
PrEd [Ber00] is a force-directed algorithm that improves the existing layout of a graph while preserving its edge crossing properties. The algorithm has a number of applications including: improving the layouts of planar graph drawing algorithms, interacting with a graph layout, and drawing Euler-like diagrams. The algorithm ensures that nodes do not cross edges during its execution. However, P...
متن کاملAutomatic Layout of State Diagrams
Consider the problem of automatically generating layouts for state diagrams (statecharts). Such diagrams appear in automation engeneering and CASE tools. Automatic layout of these diagrams leads to better understanding and saves time spend on their development. State diagram layout problem seems to have some differences from general graph layout problem. In this article adaptation of two graph ...
متن کاملLayout Metrics for Euler Diagrams
An alternative term for these diagrams is “Euler-Venn diagrams” but they are often inaccurately called “Venn diagrams”. Venn diagrams often look similar, but must contain all possible intersections of contours. In contrast, Euler diagrams contain any desired combination of intersections between the contours. Visualizations of Venn diagrams are often created by taking advantage of the symmetries...
