GENERATING VORONOI TREEMAPS

摘要

A system described herein includes a receiver component that receives a tree-structured dataset that includes multiple branches that are hierarchically related to one another. The system also includes an executor component that causes a programmable graphical processing unit to generate a Voronoi treemap based at least in part upon the tree-structured dataset, wherein the Voronoi treemap comprises a plurality of subareas that correspond to the multiple branches, and wherein the Voronoi treemap represents hierarchical relationships between the multiple branches.

1. A method comprising:
receiving a tree-structured data set, the tree-structured data set comprises a plurality of branches, the plurality of branches have respective weights assigned thereto; and responsive to receiving the tree-structured data set, generating, by a processing unit, a Voronoi treemap that visually represents the tree-structured data set, the Voronoi treemap comprises a plurality of subareas that respectively represent the plurality of branches, wherein generating the Voronoi treemap comprises converging height to width aspect ratios of the respective plurality of subareas to a predefined ratio.
