Summary
Gephi is a platform for visualizing and manipulating large graphs
Description
Gephi is an interactive visualization and exploration platform for all kinds of networks and complex systems, dynamic and hierarchical graphs.
Gephi is a tool for people that have to explore and understand graphs. Like Photoshop but for graphs, the user interacts with the representation, manipulate the structures, shapes and colors to reveal hidden properties. The goal is to help data analysts to make hypothesis, intuitively discover patterns, isolate structure singularities or faults during data sourcing. It is a complementary tool to traditional statistics, as visual thinking with interactive interfaces is now recognized to facilitate reasoning. This is software for Exploratory Data Analysis, a paradigm appeared in the Visual Analytics field of research.

Features
- Fast Powered by a built-in OpenGL engine, Gephi is able to push the envelope with very large networks. Visualize networks up to a million elements. All actions (e.g. layout, filter, drag) run in real-time.
- Simple Easy to install and get started. A UI that is centered around the visualization. Like Photoshop™ for graphs.
- Modular Extend Gephi with plug-ins. The architecture is built on top of the Netbeans Platform and can be extended or reused easily through well-written APIs.
