Abstract:
In the field of network visualization,it is essential that research network layout algorithms are integrated usually into visualization platforms. Evaluating effectively the performance of algorithm will be of great help for design of new algorithm and comparison among different algorithm. For the purpose of testing the performance of layout algorithm on visualization platforms,a software named NLAPT is proposed with Java language to compute ratio of edge-edge,node-edge crossings,and relative edge lengths on 2D plane and the generalized software interface and test algorithm are implemented. Experiments show the effectiveness and validity of NLAPT. NLAPT can be integrated conveniently into various visualization platforms,providing users useful software to evaluate the performance of layout algorithm.
