We propose MetroSets, a new, flexible online tool for visualizing set systems using the metro map metaphor. We model a given set system as a hypergraph $\mathcal{H} = (V, \mathcal{S})$, consisting of a set $V$ of vertices and a set…
A hypergraph is a set V of vertices and a set of non-empty subsets of V, called hyperedges. Unlike graphs, hypergraphs can capture higher-order interactions in social and communication networks that go beyond a simple union of pairwise…
We consider hypergraph visualizations that represent vertices as points in the plane and hyperedges as curves passing through the points of their incident vertices. Specifically, we consider several different variants of this problem by (a)…
A graph is a mathematical object consisting of a set of vertices and a set of edges connecting vertices. Graphs can be drawn on paper in various ways, but until recently all published methods of drawing graphs have had undesirable…
We define the crossing graph of a given embedded graph (such as a road network) to be a graph with a vertex for each edge of the embedding, with two crossing graph vertices adjacent when the corresponding two edges of the embedding cross…
Topological drawings are representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by simple curves connecting the points. A drawing is simple if two edges intersect at most in a single point, either at a…
Hypertrees are high-dimensional counterparts of graph theoretic trees. They have attracted a great deal of attention by various investigators. Here we introduce and study Hyperpaths -- a particular class of hypertrees which are high…
A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a support of a hypergraph $H=(V,S)$ if every hyperedge induces a connected subgraph in $G$. Supports are used for certain types of hypergraph visualizations. In this paper we consider visualizing spatial hypergraphs,…
In this paper, we propose a simple and effective {geometric} model fitting method to fit and segment multi-structure data even in the presence of severe outliers. We cast the task of geometric model fitting as a representative mode-seeking…
In this paper we consider aspects of geometric observability for hypergraphs, extending our earlier work from the uniform to the nonuniform case. Hypergraphs, a generalization of graphs, allow hyperedges to connect multiple nodes and…
Let $(X,\mathcal{E})$ be a hypergraph. A support is a graph $Q$ on $X$ such that for each $E\in\mathcal{E}$, the subgraph of $Q$ induced on the elements in $E$ is connected. We consider the problem of constructing a support for hypergraphs…
An obstacle representation of a graph is a mapping of the vertices onto points in the plane and a set of connected regions of the plane (called obstacles) such that the straight-line segment connecting the points corresponding to two…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a $k$-uniform hypergraph. A chain in $\mathcal{H}$ is a sequence of its vertices such that every $k$ consecutive vertices form an edge. In 1999 Katona and Kierstead suggested to use chains in hypergraphs as the…
In real-world systems, the relationships and connections between components are highly complex. Real systems are often described as networks, where nodes represent objects in the system and edges represent relationships or connections…
Hypergraphs have emerged as a powerful modeling framework to represent systems with multiway interactions, that is systems where interactions may involve an arbitrary number of agents. Here we explore the properties of real-world…
In this paper we develop a framework to study observability for uniform hypergraphs. Hypergraphs, being extensions of graphs, allow edges to connect multiple nodes and unambiguously represent multi-way relationships which are ubiquitous in…
Minimum spanning trees and forests are powerful sparsification techniques that remove cycles from weighted graphs to minimize total edge weight while preserving node connectivity. They have applications in computer science, network science,…
A consistent path system in a graph $G$ is an intersection-closed collection of paths, with exactly one path between any two vertices in $G$. We call $G$ metrizable if every consistent path system in it is the system of geodesic paths…
An EPG-representation of a graph $G$ is a collection of paths in a plane square grid, each corresponding to a single vertex of $G$, so that two vertices are adjacent if and only if their corresponding paths share infinitely many points. In…
The map of a city's streets constitutes a particular case of spatial complex network. However a city is not limited to its topology: it is above all a geometrical object whose particularity is to organize into short and long axes called…
