Abstract:
Multivariate networks are graphs, which consist of a set of nodes and a set of connections between these nodes, that have additional data dimensions for each node and/or connection.<br />Such multivariate graphs are prevalent in a number of different fields, including biological systems and social sciences.<br />In this thesis, an existing linked-view system for analyzing multivariate data has been extended for the analysis of networks.<br />A node-link view has been implemented to give an overview of the graph.<br />To leverage existing visualizations, additional data about the structure of the network can be added to the nodes and analyzed with views designed for unconnected multivariate data.<br />Another contribution is a novel visualization that supports the study of queries concerning relationships between different groups of nodes in a network.
