A Force-Directed Diagram Layout Algorithm | Brad Smith's Coding Blog This article concerns the generation of simple diagrams containing a series of interconnected nodes. Often, simple diagrams such as these can add a new dimension of usability to a data-driven application. For example, you can: Show the connections between related entities (e.g. people and relationships)Visualise complex structures (e.g. tree data structures)Follow logic flows and sequences (e.g. flow charts)Produce a navigation map (e.g. for a website) An ever-present challenge in dynamically-generating diagrams, however, is the layout of the nodes. Aesthetics dictate the need for uniform spacing between nodes, radial distribution and minimal crossing of lines (among other things), yet these are very difficult to achieve using ‘blind’ techniques (rule-based layouts and other algorithms that position nodes without considering the overall diagram). A diagram produced with the force-directed algorithm I have implemented a force-based layout algorithm in C# and GDI+. Node Diagram Vector

NWB Community Wiki : Tree Map browse << | Visualize Data Algorithms | >> Space Filling or Treemap Algorithm Description Tracing its ancestry to Venn diagrams (Venn,1971), the Treemap algorithm was developed in the HCI Lab at the University of Maryland . The parent-child relationship is indicated by enclosing the child-rectangle by its parent-rectangle. Asahi et al. (1994) explored the use of treemaps in the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Vernier and Nigay proposed a method to assign a variable height and width to each node.Van Wijk and Van de Wetering (1999) developed Cushion Treemaps that use shading techniques to make the tree structure more visible. Stasko and Zhang (2000) proposed a Focus+Context display and navigation techniques for enhancing radial, space-filling hierarchy visualizations. Graham Wills, Lucent Technologies ( ) presented a clustering technique based on an enhanced treemap at IEEE_InfoVis 98. QuantumTreeMap Layout Algorithm BubbleMap Layout Algorithm Links Binaries: ...
