This visualization uses star coordinates to project LDA topic probabilities for news articles into a 2D scatterplot. Each document is positioned by summing its topic-probability-weighted axis vectors, where the 20 topic axes radiate evenly around an invisible circle. D3’s force simulation with collision avoidance gently nudges overlapping points apart. Points are colored by dominant topic and opacity encodes topic probability; hovering a point or a legend entry highlights all articles sharing that topic, enlarges them with an elastic ease, and displays the article title near the cursor. A second SVG renders an interactive legend of topics.
