Several hierarchical clustering techniques have been proposed to visualize large graphs, but fewer solutions suggest a focus based approach. We propose a multilevel clustering technique that produces in linear time a contextual clustered view depending on a user-focus. We get a tree of clusters where each cluster – called
meta-silhouette
– is itself hierarchically clustered into an inclusion tree of
silhouettes
. Resulting
Multilevel Silhouette Tree
(
MuSi-Tree
) has a specific structure called
multilevel compound tree
. This work builds upon previous work on a
compound tree
structure called
MO-Tree
. The work presented in this paper is a major improvement over previous work by (1) defining
multilevel compound tree
as a more generic structure, (2) proposing original space-filling visualization techniques to display it, (3) defining relevant interaction model based on both focus changes and graph filtering techniques and (4) reporting from case studies in various fields: co-citation graphs, related-document graphs and social graphs.
