Visualisation
- The richly structured data means much more is capable in visulaisation: Every type of relationship (including cross references, synonyms, antonyms, etc.) is represented in the XML markup
- We use the modified-spring algorithm for animated Graph Layout
- This has a dual benefit of laying out the graph in a clear way as well as encouraging the user to play with the animated node and their repulsion behaviour
- The colour coding of the graph allows a richer dictionary experience as they navigate the relationships
- The "fun" aspect of this approach encourages browsing the language as well as gaining a broader understanding
- Another strength is that the behaviour of the layout algorithm is completely customisable, by adjusting the repulsion-attraction constants
