Week 15: The Flavor Connection

[citou]

This visualization is very cool but not so effective in my view. The very good aspect is: the filtering function works cool. When we select one specific node, the connection lines are very clear. But the global view is not good. Too many nodes and lines overlap each other that make the whole image mess. In my understanding ,when we use node link, one thing is very easy for us to select a specific content, in the other hand, it could give people a simple outline, hierarchy or ordering using big or small node. But it's difficult for us to distinguish these nodes in this visualization. Furthermore, it's not easy to use. Although it's simple to select or filter, we should make some effort to understanding what's the meaning of each encoding channel and how to use them.
