Call for Participation
The 24th Annual Graph Drawing Contest shall be held in conjunction with the 25th International Symposium on Graph Drawing and network Visualization (GD 2017).
The contest has two parts: the Creative Topics and the Live Challenge.
Creative Topics
The creative topics are provided a year in advance and focus on free-form visualisation of specific graphs. Two graphs are provided, and participants are invited to submit any drawings of one or both of the graphs. The submissions will be judged by the contest committee during the symposium. This year's topics are the Graph Drawing citation graph, and the human metabolism graph.
For details, see here.
Live Challenge
The live challenge will be held during the conference in a format similar to a typical programming contest, where teams are presented with a collection of challenge graphs and have approximately one hour to submit their highest scoring drawings. This year the challenge will focus on maximizing the angles between crossing edges in straight-line embeddings. The tool is now available online.
For details, see here.
