ABSTRACT
UNLABELLED Graph layout is extensively used in the field of mathematics and computer science, however these ideas and methods have not been extended in a general fashion to the construction of graphs for biological data. To this end, we have implemented a version of the Fruchterman Rheingold graph layout algorithm, extensively modified for the purpose of similarity analysis in biology. This algorithm rapidly and effectively generates clear two (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) graphs representing similarity relationships such as protein sequence similarity. The implementation of the algorithm is general and applicable to most types of similarity information for biological data. AVAILABILITY:
