philosophy phd_advisor_network
A force-directed graph displays a network of philosophy PhD advisors and their academic relationships, with nodes representing individuals and links indicating advisor-student connections. The visualization uses d3.forceSimulation with charge and center forces to position related philosophers in proximity, while link stroke-width encodes connection strength. Data originates from a JSON file of philosopher pairings, rendered as SVG circles and lines with drag interaction support via d3.drag.
AI-generated descriptionThis simple force-directed graph shows character co-occurence in Les Misérables. A physical simulation of charged particles and springs places related characters in closer proximity, while unrelated characters are farther apart. Layout algorithm inspired by Tim Dwyer and Thomas Jakobsen. Data based on character coappearence in Victor Hugo's Les Misérables, compiled by Donald Knuth.
Compare this display to a force layout with curved links, a force layout with fisheye distortion and a matrix diagram.
