# How to run the visualization suite

## Pre-requisites:
## Pre-requisites
1. Active internet connection as some of the dependencies are loaded via CDNs
2. If you use _Firefox_, just open the file index.html in it
3. If you use a different browser, you need to set up a simple web server; with python for example, you just need to run "python -m SimpleHTTPServer" (python v2) or "python -m http.server" (python v3) in this directory
  *  Per default, this should serve the app on port 8000 of localhost (access via 0.0.0.0:8000 or localhost:8000 in your browser)

## Notes on visualizations
1. Currently, the .json files in the directory _data_ are manually fetched; so if new files are added to that directory, the app code must be changed to handle the new files
2. Since the graph is a multi-edge directed graph, the visualization tool uses a setting called _smooth edges_ to differentiate between multiple edges between the same two nodes
  *  With large networks, however, this takes a longer time to render the graph

# Graph files
1. graph_v10.json: As described in paper
# Graph files (in _data_)
1. graph_v10.json: As described in the paper
2. graph_v11.json:
  * adds nobility titles and named entity types to each node
  * [bugfix] issuers and normal named entities are resolved separately ("i: Alfons" and "e: Alfons")
  * [bugifx] named entites mistakenly ending on "v." (e.g. "Dieter v.") get extended by one word ("Dieter v. Minzenberg")
  * [bugifx] named entities mistakenly ending on "v." (e.g. "Dieter v.") get extended by one word ("Dieter v. Minzenberg")
  * [bugfix] named entities with <= 2 chars get removed
