Complexity is a major issue when it comes to visualising biological networks; as the number of entities increases, the majority of graphical views become unintelligible.Therefore, the overarching aim of this project is to research novel methods to develop more usable visualisation for biological networks, considering the perceptual and cognitive limitations of humans and utilising the concepts of interestingness measures (quality metrics) and interactive visualisation to enable the visualisation of many thousands of entities meaningfully and with high performance.
