Abstract
There are many tools for the analysis of social networks such as the algorithms for community detection. However, visualization of these networks enables not only to recognize their important structural features and forms, such as clusters of vertices and their connectivity patterns, but also to assess their mutual relationships in terms of position, distance, shape and connection density. As we have demonstrated in our recent paper, a new method for interactive visualization of graphs (ivga) allows for instant visualization of large social networks, consisting of a few million of vertices and scores of million edges. Here, we estimate its visualization precision by investigating the network of historical events generated from English Wikipedia. The Wikipedia articles about historical events are the vertices of this graph while the hyperlinks to other articles represent its edges. We show that the network reveals a very distinct multi-scale structural properties. Its visual and interactive exploration allows for better understanding the casual relationships between both single historical events and their clusters.
