Kei, we are extremely interested in Neo4j support for Cytoscape, as we are seing a lot of interest for Graphs from the Computational Genomics and Bioinformatics crowd, but in practice, a lot of work is done in iGraph and R, and limited to very basic analytics and the built in graph algos. I think

Hi. I'm a core developer of Cytoscape and playing with Neo4j as a backend for Cytoscape. Currently, this is my personal project, but we are interested in Neo4j to provide users building their own network databases locally from Cytoscape. In the next version (2.8), Cytoscape can support most of

Hi Anders. This could be of some interest: http://wiki.neo4j.org/content/Google_Summer_of_Code_for_Neo4j_Visualization We have been participating in Google Summer of Code as a mentoring organization for past five years and looks this is a great project for next year. Does Cytoscape support

Hi, I've been using neo4j for some time now and evaluated various GUI solutions. (cytoscape, graphviz / xdot, gephi, plantUML) My conclusion is that the neo4j eclipse gui is often the best solution for complex structured graphs. However, I have a few suggestions for improvement. (In order of

Hi! Thanks for your input. I'm working on a new version of neoclipse and hope to commit my changes soon. Just waiting for my code base to get reasonably consistent :-) The biggest change is that neoclipse will handle threads in a correct manner, that is, there will only be exactly one

Also, hav you tried to open big graphs with Gephi? I recently tried to open the Neo4j db generated by the test of http://github.com/neo4j/neo4j-spatial (run mvn clean test), but things slowed down to a trickle. Not sure if what the limit is for Gephi, and how to open/surf nodes with a depth-1

Sticking with the original thread topic of requirements for neoclipse. I find that if I accidentally open a view of a graph with more than about 500 nodes to layout then the whole lot takes a very long time to come back. Is there a way to either speed it up, or let the user interrupt the process

My two-pence regarding neoclipse - I am working on a set of data with about one million links between nodes. It takes quite a long time to display that in neoclipse - so I cut down the data set to about 5000 links between 500 or so nodes, and there are about 6/7 connected components (like
