We propose UNICON, a UNIform CONstraint based graph layout framework that supports both soft and hard constraints. We extend the stress model to accommodate soft constraints by incorporating them in the objective functions, optimized by stochastic gradient descent. For hard constraints, such as inequalities or equalities in the layout space, we utilize a gradient projection method to satisfy them. A visualization prototype system is implemented based on this framework for the user to interactively add or remove constraints to generate the desired layouts. We demonstrate the efficiency, quality, and flexibility of the framework and the system on a number of datasets with a wide range of user-defined constraints. |
