About
Graph visualization is based on the mathematical theory of networks, graph theory.
Type
Circle
- Chord graph. Nodes are place on a circle. Death Star dependency graph
- Radial, diagonal and Dendro Network are tree. Ie Network without cycle.
Flow
- Sankey diagrams visualize the magnitude of flow between nodes in a network.
- Alluvial diagrams show how network structure changes over time.
