Introduction to Multivariate Network Visualization

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 8380))

Abstract

Information visualization focuses on the use of techniques to help people understand and analyze data. This chapter puts multivariate networks in the context of the aims of information visualization research, providing both formal and informal definitions of such networks. In addition, existing techniques for visualizing multivariate networks are described and classified.
