However, current hyperbolic network visualization approaches are limited to special types of networks and do not scale to large datasets. With this in mind, we designed, implemented, and analyzed three methods for hyperbolic visualization of networks in the browser based on inverse projections, generalized force-directed algorithms, and hyperbolic multi-dimensional scaling (H-MDS). A comparison with Euclidean MDS shows that H-MDS produces embeddings with lower distortion for several types of networks. All three methods can handle node-link representations and are available in fully functional web-based systems.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.08028v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.08028v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"browser-based-hyperbolic-visualization-of","repo_url":"https://github.com/mickey253/hyperbolic-space-graphs","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
