J2.5dPathway: A 2.5D Visualization Tool to Display Selected Nodes in Biological Pathways, in Parallel Planes

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The characteristics of metabolic pathways make them particularly amenable to layered graph drawing methods. This paper presents a visual Java-based tool for drawing and annotating biological pathways in twoand-
a-half dimensions (2.5D) as an alternative to threedimensional (3D) visualizations. Such visualization allows user to display different groups of clustered nodes, in different parallel planes, and to see a detailed view of
a group of objects in focus and its place in the context of the whole system. This tool is an extended version of J2dPathway.
