Abstract
Recent empirical research has shown that increasing the angle of crossings reduces
the effect of crossings and improves human readability [5]. In this paper, we
introduce a post-processing algorithm, namely MAXCIR, that aims to increase
crossing angles of circular layouts by using Quadratic Programming. Experimental
results indicate that our method significantly increases crossing angles
compared to the traditional equal-spacing algorithm, and that the running time
is fairly negligible.
