7.1 Research problem

As previously explained in section 2.2, social networks can vary a lot in structure: from sparse graphs exhibiting a tree structure to very dense ones presenting a table-like structure. Select- ing the most suited representation is strongly correlated to the network density. For example, node-link diagrams are particularly effective for very sparse networks while matrix representa- tion clearly outperform them for very dense networks [GFC05]. The difficulty is to identify the density threshold beyond which matrices are more suited than node-link diagrams. This choice is especially ambiguous for small-world networks, a very common category of social networks. The particularity of small-world networks is their global sparse structure with dense local parts. The major difficulty faced when representing these network is to show first how members of communities are connected (intra-community connectivity), then how communities are connected (inter-community connectivity) and finally who the central actors are. Thus, in this chapter, we attempt to solve the following question:

®How can we design a representation for small-world networks? i.e., improving intra-community and inter-community connectivity readability as well as highlighting central actors?

The second part of this chapter is dedicated to the problem of ambiguous clustering. When an actor is connected to two or more communities, there are three solutions: placing the actor in one or the other, extracting it and placing it between them or generating overlapping commu- nities. While extracting the actor and producing overlapping communities dramatically decrease the representation readability, choosing one or the other community to place the central actor also raises problems as it changes the visual representation, which is potentially misleading. Thus our research question is:

®How can we solve the problem of ambiguous clustering without degrading the representation readability or misleading the user? To solve these problems, we present the NodeTrix [HFM07] representation (Figure 7.1b), merging node-link diagrams and matrices to visualize social networks as well as the technique of node duplication [HBF08] (Figure 7.1c) to solve the ambiguous clustering problem. NodeTrix 149

Supporting the exploration of matrices One weakness of the matrix representation, when ex- ploring a network, is the tedious work required to perform path-related tasks. For example, finding how two communities are connected is tedious as it requires going back and forth alternately read- ing rows and columns. Moreover, if communities are far apart in the matrix, this task requires a scan of the full length of matrix rows or columns, and connections in a large matrix may lie outside the viewport. Obviously, the task is worse when dealing with three matrices as the user needs to check for intersections of rows and columns in each of the three communities. We noticed in a participatory-design session reported in [HF06a] that social network analysts also use the matrix representation for some of their analyses. To help perform community analysis and provide support for path-related tasks in general, we provide users with a couple of interaction techniques that work across separate matrix-NodeTrix windows that might be arranged in a dual- viewport or split-screen fashion. These techniques are still based on drag-and-drop, however this time, the user drags a group of elements from one window to another one.

From Matrix to NodeTrix The interaction is made of two steps: first, the user selects a group of nodes in the window of the pure matrix visualization and then drags this group to the MotivationNodeTrix window (Figure 7.5). To select the group of nodes, we provide lasso selection directly on the pure matrix representation. Alternatively, the selection can be done on an axis (rows and columns). When a group of cells is selected, the corresponding set of vertices transferred is the XYZ decom- union of the edges’ source vertices and sink vertices. Dropping the selected group inside the positions NodeTrix window performs the addition of an aggregated node to the NodeTrix visualization. The

V. Batagelj group is then displayed as a matrix. Selecting and dropping a second group allows the user to see how these groups are connected to each other visualizing the result with links. The process can

Dagstuhl continue to visualize connections between several communities. Seminar 08191

V. Batagelj XYZ decompositions XYZ decompositions

XYZ decom- positions Given two graph classes X and Y, a graph G = (V , E) is an

V. Batagelj X -graph of Y-graphs (or( X , Y)-graph, for short) if a family V1, V2,..., Vh of disjoint subsets of V , called clusters, can be Dagstuhl Seminar 08191 identified, such that: Motivation 1 every cluster induces a graph belonging to class Y, and XYZ decom- positions 2 the reduced graphG ∗ obtained from G by collapsing each Results cluster into a single and replacing multiple edges References with a single one is a graph of class X .

If subset V1, V2,... Vh are requested to be a partition of V , that is, if we add the constraint that V = V1 ∪ V2 ∪ · · · ∪ Vh, then we call G a strong (X , Y)-graph, otherwise we call G a weak (X , Y)-graph or, simply, an (X , Y)-graph. The strong model of X -graph of Y-graphs, also known as two level clustered graphs [11, 17, 13], was introduced in [4].

References constrained, since with such a hypothesis any graph is an (X , Y)-graph in the weak model. More generally, for their impact on applications it is worth exploring cases when X -graphs are “low-density” graphs; planar graphs; connected graphs with bounded or specified number of nodes; and directed acyclic graphs. Also, the cases when X -graphs are trees, paths, cycles, and bounded size graphs are interesting from a more theoretic perspective.

XYZ decom- positions V. Batagelj Similarly, regarding the families of Y-graphs, we signal as Dagstuhl important for applications the cases when Y-graphs are Seminar 08191 “high-density” graphs, as, for example, graphs with high Motivation density; k-cores; cliques; k-connected graphs; strongly XYZ decom- positions connected digraphs; and stars. Results We recall that the density of a graph G = (V , E) is defined as References 2|E| |V |(|V |−1) , and that a (sub)graph has core number k if all its vertices have (internal) degree at least k. Again, from a more theoretic perspective, the cases when Y-graphs are trees, paths, cycles, and bounded size graphs are interesting.

XYZ decom- positions Regarding the weak model, we explored some cases when dense Results Y-graph are involved. In particular, we observe that identifying References cliques in large graphs may lead to a very effective strategy for information visualization. In fact, when the user is able to tell that a subset of nodes is a clique, its internal edges are understood and do not need to be explicitly displayed. Unfortunately, recognizing (planar, K5)-graphs is NP-hard. This result parallels the analogous result for the strong model [12, 11].
