Matrix View
This matrix view shows the adjacency relationships among U.S. states, with rows and columns representing individual states and colored cells indicating shared borders. The visualization supports reordering the matrix by state name, by connection count, or by geographic region, with animated transitions between these orderings. Hovering over a cell highlights the corresponding row and column labels. The code uses D3.js v2 with an ordinal scale for positioning, a linear scale for opacity, and SVG transitions to animate the reordering.
