Projects



GoVisual Diagram Editor (GDE)

The GoVisual Diagram editor (GDE) provides powerful functionality for editing and automatic layout of diagrams. Diagrams are represented in form of graphs and cluster graphs.

Open Graph Drawing Framework (OGDF)

The Open Graph Drawing Framework (OGDF) is an open source software project that provides a library of datastructures and graph layout algorithms. OGDF is the successor of AGD, the library of algorithms for graph drawing.

Scaffold Hunter is a tool for the interactive exploration of chemical space. It facilitates navigation by graphical visualization of structural relationships and provides methods for the analysis of large data sets, e.g., to correlate chemical structure and biochemical activity. Scaffold Hunter is implemented in Java and freely available under the GPL.

Master Students

06/2009-11/2009: Nils Kriege (Erweiterte Substruktursuche in Molek�ldatenbanken und ihre Integration in Scaffoldhunter). Substructure search feature for Scaffold Hunter.

08/2008-02/2009: Gereon Bartel (Coarsening strategies for multi-level graph drawing methods). The resulting Modular Multilevel Mixer will be included in the next release of the Open Graph Drawing Framework (OGDF)

09/2007-02/2008: Philip Thome (Algorithmen zum flächenminimalen planaren Zeichnen von Graphen), under joint supervision of Mike Preuss and Karsten Klein.

04/2007-10/2007: Anne Kunert (Automatic layouts for biological networks), in cooperation with the Molecular Networks in Medical Bioinformatics group at the Max Planck Institut Informatik under joint supervision of Mario Albrecht and Karsten Klein. The resulting layout is implemented in the Cytoscape plugin DomainGraph.

02/2007-08/2007: Mathias Jansen (A branch-and-cut approach for the maximum c-planar subgraph problem). The resulting code will be included in the next release of the Open Graph Drawing Framework (OGDF)

08/2005-02/2006: Bouchta Lakhal (Efficient search in protein databases). Used internally in software at the MPC.
