In-Depth Information
The examples in Chap.
4
use a public network analysis library, JUNG.
1
Visualiza-
tion examples discussed in Chap.
5
are created using JSP and JavaScript. A majority
of the visualizations are built using D3 visualization library and JQuery toolkit. D3
provides a wide array of visualization constructs from which to build interesting
visualizations. The library also has numerous examples
2
from which the reader can
learn to build visual analytics not covered in this topic. We also use the InfoVis
toolkit in the network visualization for the pie chart and Raphael to create the topic
charts. The code snippets included in the chapters are intended for illustrating the
concepts and techniques and not necessarily provide all the details. We encourage
the reader to visit the website to obtain complete examples and play with them to
gain better understanding.
