I have a 2D graph that I'm trying to lay out cleanly. Does anyone know of an algorithm that, given the x, y position of every node and the graph's edges will tell me how many edges cross. Right now I ...

Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory. This past October, as Jacob Holm and Eva Rotenberg were thumbing through a ...

I'm tasked to write a layout panel and library to display a directional left-right graph with a single source and sink node. Most of the documents I'm finding online are heavily detailed on the theory ...

Graph crossing numbers quantify the minimum number of edge intersections in any planar drawing of a graph, an essential parameter in both theoretical and applied graph theory. The study of crossing ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

A puzzle that has long flummoxed computers and the scientists who program them has suddenly become far more manageable. A new algorithm efficiently solves the graph isomorphism problem, computer ...
