The document discusses a novel 'group-in-a-box' (GIB) layout for visualizing social networks, enhancing the comprehension of clustered groups within data. It presents various visual examples, including the Twitter user network and the 2007 U.S. Senate co-voting network, highlighting the differences in clarity and structure between GIB and traditional layouts. Additionally, the document outlines the capabilities of the NodeXL tool for social media network analysis and visualization.

- 6. Figure 1. (a) Harel-Koren (HK) fast multi-scale layout of a clustered network of Twitter users, using color to differentiate among the vertices in different clusters. The layout produces a visualization with overlapping cluster positions. . (b) Group-in-a-Box (GIB) layout of the same Twitter network: clusters are distributed in a treemap structure that partitions the drawing canvas based on the size of the clusters and the properties of the rendered layout. Inside each box, clusters are rendered with the HK layout.
- 8. Figure 2. The 2007 U.S. Senate co-voting network graph, obtained with the Fruchterman-Reingold (FR) layout. Vertices colors represent the senators’ party affiliations (blue: Democrats; red: Republicans; orange: Independent) and their size is proportional to betweenness centrality. Edges represent percentage of agreement between senators: (a) above 50%; (b) above 90%.
- 9. Figure 3. The 2007 U.S. Senate co-voting network graph, visualized with the GIB layout. The group in each box represents senators from a given U.S. region (1: South; 2: Midwest; 3: Northeast; 4: Mountain; 5: Pacific) and individual groups are displayed using the FR layout. Vertices colors represent the senators’ party affiliations (blue: Democrats; red: Republicans; orange: Independent) and their size is proportional to betweenness centrality. Edges represent percentage of agreement between senators: (a) above 50%; (b) above 90%..

(a) Full graph with 500 vertices colored according to the cluster membership. (b) GIB layout of the same 5 clusters showing inter-cluster edges. (c) GIB showing the structural properties of the individiual clusters.
- 13. Figure 5. Pseudo-random graphs with 5 clusters of different sizes (comprising 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 vertices), with intra-cluster edge probability of 0.15: (a) inter-cluster edge probability of 0.05. The graphs are visualized using the Harel-Koren fast multi-scale layout algorithm and vertices are sized by betweenness centrality. The visualizations in (b) is the corresponding GIB layout.

(a) Harel–Koren layout of the clustered graph. (b) Harel–Koren layout after removing inter-cluster edges. (c) Fruchterman-Reingold layout after removing inter-cluster edges. (d) GIB showing inter-cluster edges and (e) GIB showing intra-clsuter edges.
