This example visualizes a character co-occurrence network from *Les Misérables*, using a force-directed layout to position nodes. Hovering over a node highlights it by turning the circle black and revealing its text label. The implementation uses D3 v3’s `d3.layout.force` and `d3.geom.voronoi` to create invisible cell paths around each node, expanding the hover target area. Nodes and links are rendered as SVG circles, lines, and paths, with data loaded from a JSON file.

Force-Directed Layout

This example visualizes the character co-occurrence network from *Les Misérables* using a force-directed layout with animated node and link appearance. Nodes fade in sequentially, and links become visible only after both connected nodes have appeared. The code uses D3’s `d3.layout.force` for physics simulation and SVG circles and lines for rendering, with chained `transition()` calls and `delay` timing to stagger the entrance. Node color encodes group membership via `d3.scale.category20`, while link thickness reflects the edge value.

Force Layout with Tooltips

A force-directed graph displays character relationships from *Les Misérables*, using a JSON dataset of nodes and links. The layout positions characters as images and links as lines, with hover tooltips revealing names. Built with D3 v3, it leverages the `d3.layout.force` simulation and SVG rendering, updating positions dynamically via the `on("tick")` event.

(d3v4) Force Layout w highlights

This example shows a force-directed network graph of character interactions from *Les Misérables*, rendered as SVG nodes and links. Hovering over a node or link highlights its connections by fading unrelated elements, while a tooltip displays names, groups, and link strength. Dragging nodes repositions them, and double-clicking releases them from the fixed position. The visualization uses d3.forceSimulation with link, charge, and center forces, plus d3.drag for interaction and d3.schemeSet3 for coloring nodes by group.

Untitled

A force-directed network graph of character co-appearances from *Les Misérables* is shown. The layout separates nodes by community group with color, and hovering a node highlights only that node's neighborhood, dimming other links and text labels. The code uses `d3.forceSimulation` for both the main graph and a secondary label layout, plus `d3.drag`, zoom via `d3.zoom`, and SVG circles and lines. Node labels are positioned with a custom spring-like offset calculation based on text bounding boxes.

D3.js v4 Force Directed Graph with Labels

This example shows a force-directed graph of character co-occurrence in *Les Misérables*, with each character’s name displayed beside its node. It adapts Mike Bostock’s original diagram by wrapping each circle and its text label in a `<g>` element, enabling labels to move with nodes during interaction. The visualization uses D3.js v4’s `d3.forceSimulation`, `d3.forceLink`, `d3.forceManyBody`, and `d3.forceCenter` to compute layout, and renders with SVG. Nodes are color-coded by group using `d3.scaleOrdinal` and `d3.schemeCategory20`, with data loaded from a `miserables.json` file.

D3.js v4 Force Directed Graph with Labels

This example shows a force-directed graph of character co-occurrences in *Les Misérables*, with character names displayed directly beside each node. The visualization uses D3.js v4’s force simulation to position nodes and links, grouping SVG circles and text labels inside `<g>` elements so names travel with their nodes during drag and layout. Node colors encode character group membership, while link thickness reflects the strength of co-occurrence. The graph is interactive—nodes can be dragged, and the simulation restarts on interaction—and is rendered entirely in SVG with a clean, minimal style.

D3.js v4 Force Directed Graph with Labels

This force-directed graph visualizes character co-occurrence in *Les Misérables*, adapted from Mike Bostock’s original with added permanent labels. Each character is represented by a circle colored by group via an ordinal scale, and a text label is placed beside it by grouping both elements inside a shared SVG `<g>` container. Node positions are computed with D3 v4’s force simulation, including link, charge, and centering forces, with drag behavior to reposition nodes. Edge thickness encodes co-occurrence strength, and labels update in place as the simulation runs, making the network easier to explore than the unlabeled original.

Force-Directed Graph

This force-directed graph visualizes character co-occurrence in *Les Miséables*, using a physical simulation to position related characters closer together. Based on data compiled by Donald Knuth, the layout applies charged-particle repulsion and spring-like link forces, with node color encoding community group and link thickness reflecting co-appearance frequency. The D3 v4 implementation precomputes the layout over 300 ticks, then renders static SVG circles and lines, with drag-and-drop interaction to explore the network.
