problem when visualizing large (or huge) graphs. Force-directed algorithm is a popular
approach for laying graphs yet small to medium size datasets due to its slow convergence
time. This paper proposes a new method which combines clustering and a force-directed
algorithm, to reduce the computational complexity and time. It works by dividing a Long
Convergence: LC into two Short Convergences: SC1, SC2, where SC1+ SC2<; LC. We also …
