HyperColl generates visually appealing representations for showing multiple shared connections between a large number of entities in a single graph. The library is in particular useful for visualizing collaborative projects.
The maunal provides all essential information for the user.
The main structure of the representation generated by Hypercoll is very simple: the entities are ordered in some way around a circle. The circle bounds a disk, on which we introduce the standard hyperbolic metric. Each individual connection is drawn as a geodesic, so that each group that shares connections of the same type corresponds to a hyperbolic polygon. A few parameters can be used to adjust the visual appearance of the polygons (shading, shape, etc.).
Here is an example:
In this example, each hyperbolic polygon represents a cooperation project supported by the Creative Europe program of the European Union, which connects certain partner countries.
