欧拉图是一种表示信息的图形方法。提供抽象可以精确地捕获相关信息,忽略不相关的细节(其中相关性取决于应用程序域)。我们提出了两个新的抽象,并表明,这些都相当于一个标准的现有(基于区域的)表示。示例说明了不同抽象在各个领域的潜在有用性,例如:识别嵌套性或可绘制性等属性,以更可读的方式表达语义,以及在图的布局中。
Euler diagrams are a graphical means to represent information. Providing an abstraction captures the pertinent information precisely, ignoring irrelevant details (where relevancy is dependent upon the application domain). We present two new abstractions and show that these are equivalent to a standard existing (zone-based) representation. Examples illustrate the potential usefulness of different abstractions in various areas, such as: identifying properties like nestedness or drawability, expressing the semantics in a more readable manner, and in the layout of diagrams.
