DOI: 10.7155/jgaa.00089 Graph Drawing by High-Dimensional Embedding David Harel and Yehuda Koren Vol. 8, no. 2, pp. 195-214, 2004. Regular paper Abstract We present a novel approach to the aesthetic drawing of undirected graphs. The method has two phases: first embed the graph in a very high dimension and then project it into the 2-D plane using principal components analysis. Running time is linear in the graph size, and experiments we have carried out show the ability of the method to draw graphs of 105 nodes in few seconds. The new method appears to have several advantages over classical methods, including a significantly better running time, a useful inherent capability to exhibit the graph in various dimensions, and an effective means for interactive exploration of large graphs.
