Arc Diagram

Full Screen

Source: The Stanford GraphBase

This Arc Diagram visualizes character co-occurrences in Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables. Each character is represented by a circle, and the thickness connecting arcs represent the number co-occurrences with another character in a chapter. Each circle’s size represents the sum of all that character’s co-occurrences.

Compare this display to a force layout and a matrix diagram.

Many thanks to Stanford’s “A Tour through the Visialization Zoo”. This visualization is based upon the arc diagram which appears there.
