Force-directed graph drawing algorithms assign forces among the set of edges and the set of nodes of a graph drawing.Typically, spring-like attractive forces based on Hooke's law are used to attract pairs of endpoints of the graph's edges towards each other, while simultaneously repulsive forces like those of electrically charged particles based on Coulomb's law are used to separate all pairs ...
Graph drawing is an area of mathematics and computer science combining methods from geometric graph theory and information visualization to derive two-dimensional depictions of graphs arising from applications such as social network analysis, cartography, linguistics, and bioinformatics.
Force-directed graph drawing systems continue to be a popular method for visualizing graphs, but these systems typically use more complicated systems of forces that combine attractive forces on graph edges (as in Tutte's embedding) with repulsive forces between arbitrary pairs of vertices. These additional forces may cause the system to have ...
