Gephi Roadmap (2010-2011)

0.8 (end of 2010)

• Dynamic metrics. See metric evolution over time in a temporal network. Nodes added, dropped, degree change (Specification - GSoC Dynamic attributes and statistics).
  • Manipulate attribute columns
  • Split/merge/Simplify
  • Create graphs from different dimensions (Ex: Authors-Authors, Authors-Document or Document-Document).
  • Import/Export CSV.
• Spigots (Specification - GSoC Direct Social Networks Import)
• Neo4j database support (Specification - GSoC Adding support for Neo4j in Gephi)
• Graph streaming features, stream graph from/to diverse sources (Specification - GSoC Graph Streaming API)
• Force Directed Edges Bundling in Preview (Specification - GSoC Force-Directed Edge Bundling)
• French and Spanish translations
• Some other Ideas? Please share them to the forum

Target 1.0

• GPU Visualization Engine, target 200K nodes, 1M edges (Specification - GSoC Shader Engine).
• Local exploration, quick overview on a subgraph
• Layout
  • Circular
  • Tree
  • Balloon
• Graphs with different shapes
• QuickSearch API, contextual search on attributes
• Data sources plugins ideas
  • Youtube, Flickr, twitter, email, ...
  • Databases assistants
  • Text documents (get co-occurrences, language detection, persons graphs)
  • NYT API
