Abstract
This is a survey on graph visualization and navigation techniques, as used in information visualization. Graphs appear in numerous applications such as Web browsing, state-transition diagrams, and data structures. The ability to visualize and to navigate in these potentially large, abstract graphs is often a crucial part of an application. Information visualization has specific requirements, which means that this survey approaches the results of traditional graph drawing from a different perspective.

Visual exploration of multivariate graphs

TL;DR: This paper introduces PivotGraph, a software tool that uses a new technique for visualizing and analyzing graph structures designed specifically for graphs that are "multivariate," i.e., where each node is associated with several attributes.

A Survey on Network Embedding

TL;DR: Network embedding assigns nodes in a network to low-dimensional representations and effectively preserves the network structure as discussed by the authors, and a significant amount of progress has been made toward this emerging network analysis paradigm.

Materials Cartography: Representing and Mining Materials Space Using Structural and Electronic Fingerprints

TL;DR: In this article, the authors address the issue of scientific discovery in materials databases by introducing novel analytical approaches based on structural and electronic materials fingerprints, which are employed to query large databases of materials using similarity concepts, map the connectivity of materials space (i.e., as a materials cartograms) for rapidly identifying regions with unique organizations/properties, and develop predictive Quantitative Materials Structure-Property Relationship models for guiding materials design.

Balancing Systematic and Flexible Exploration of Social Networks

TL;DR: SocialAction is presented, a system that uses attribute ranking and coordinated views to help users systematically examine numerous SNA measures and provides systematic, yet flexible, techniques for exploring social networks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visual Analysis of Large Heterogeneous Social Networks by Semantic and Structural Abstraction

TL;DR: OntoVis is named such because it uses information in the ontology associated with a social network to semantically prune a large, heterogeneous network, and allows users to do structural abstraction and importance filtering to make large networks manageable and to facilitate analytic reasoning.

Cluster Analysis

TL;DR: This fourth edition of the highly successful Cluster Analysis represents a thorough revision of the third edition and covers new and developing areas such as classification likelihood and neural networks for clustering.

Graph drawing by force-directed placement

TL;DR: A modification of the spring‐embedder model of Eades for drawing undirected graphs with straight edges is presented, developed in analogy to forces in natural systems, for a simple, elegant, conceptually‐intuitive, and efficient algorithm.

Information Visualization: Perception for Design

TL;DR: The art and science of why the authors see objects the way they do are explored, and the author presents the key principles at work for a wide range of applications--resulting in visualization of improved clarity, utility, and persuasiveness.

Generalized fisheye views

TL;DR: This paper explores fisheye views presenting, in turn, naturalistic studies, a general formalism, a specific instantiation, a resulting computer program, example displays and an evaluation.
