Abstract
Aesthetics are often used to judge how good a graph drawing
is in terms of specific drawing rules. A direct measurement
of overall quality is missing. In this paper, we propose to
evaluate quality based on aggregation of individual aesthetics.
This measure can be used by visualization designers
to quickly compare the quality of drawings at hand at the
design stage and make decisions accordingly. We present a
user study that validates this measure. The implications of
the proposed measure for future research are discussed.
