Affiliation Dynamics with an Application to Movie-Actor Biographies
Ulrik Brandes, Martin Hoefer, Christian Pich · KOPS (University of Konstanz) · 2006
We propose a visualization approach for dynamic affiliation networks in which events are characterized by a set of descriptors. It uses a radial ripple metaphor to display the passing of time and conveys relations among the different constituents through appropriate layout. Our method is particularly suitable when assuming an egocentric perspective, and we illustrate it on movie-actor biographies.
