Embodiment Construction

[0052] The technical solution of the present invention is divided into three steps: the first step is to use the improved force-guided algorithm to generate a preliminary layout with an obvious cluster structure that can reflect the structural information of the graph; the second step is to use the automatic The bottom-up hierarchical clustering method generates the hierarchical structure of the graph; in the third step, visual abstraction is performed at different levels according to the generated hierarchical structure.

[0053] A hierarchical visual abstraction method based on improved force-guided graph layout, the steps are as follows:

[0054] 1. Using an improved force-directed algorithm to generate a preliminary layout. The improved force-guided algorithm is to use the FR algorithm to start from a random position, iterate iteratively to find the minimum energy state, generate a relatively stable layout, and then execute the LinLog algorithm based on this state.

Abstract

The invention provides a hierarchical visual abstraction method based on an improved force-directed graph layout. The method comprises the steps of (1) generating an initial layout which has an obvious cluster structure and can reflect structure information of a graph by using an improved force-directed algorithm, (2) generating a hierarchical structure of the graph by using a hierarchical clustering method from bottom to top based on a layout result, and (3) carrying out visual abstraction at different levels according to the generated hierarchical structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a graphic display method of network data. Background technique [0002] Network data refers to data that can be expressed as a graph structure, expressing the intricate relationship between things. From various social relationship networks to scientific research cooperation networks, biological relationship networks to computer networks, etc., human beings live in a world full of various networks. Moreover, many networks have the characteristics of small worlds, that is, these network graphs have a local cluster structure, and their high connectivity makes it difficult to find a suitable layout and graph structure. The node link method is an intuitive expression of the network, using vertices to represent individuals in the network, and using edges to represent the relationship between individuals. The things in the real world are abstracted into a node link structure, and the network structure can be effectively visualized t...
