Abstract
A method for visualizing brain connectivity includes receiving image data including molecular diffusion of brain tissue, constructing a tree data structure from the image data, wherein the tree data structure comprises a plurality of network nodes, wherein each network node is connected to a root of the tree data structure, rendering a ring of a radial layout depicting the tree data structure, wherein a plurality of vertices may be traversed from the top to the bottom, duplicating at least one control point for spline edges sharing a common ancestor, and bundling spline edges by applying a global strength parameter β.
