Capability Map
Co-Authorship and Co-Investigator Network Visualizations
It is possible to display and investigate co-author and co-investigator networks in VIVO. Both tools share a common structure. The main component is a chord diagram, that is used to visualize the connection betweent co-authors or co-investigators. Note: This information is based solely on publications that have been loaded into the VIVO system. This may only be a small sample of the person's total work.
When you hover above the name of a person, the visualization will focus on showing the connections of the selected person. Furthermore the number of joint publications (or grants) will be shown. Left-clicking on the name will load this person's VIVO profile.
Below the chord diagram you will find more tools. Firstly, two sparklines, one showing the number of publications of this person per year, the other the number of co-authors per year. It is possible to export the underlying data as csv file. Co-authors and publications per year will be shown in tables at the bottom of the page, too.
