Figure 1: Data dependencies pane.

The Dependencies pane allow for inspecting the mutual information of nodes. Depending on the threshold set by the slider, edges will be hidden according to the mutual information of the nodes. Toggle between inspecting mutual information for all nodes or nodes with directed edges by clicking the checkbox “Complete graph”. Mutual information will be computed based on the case selected in the “Enter Case” drop down box.

Buttons at the top of the pane allows for zooming the view of the network and adjusting the scale of the slider if possible.

  • Stronger and weaker dependencies can be identified by moving the threshold slider, as edges are only displayed if the mutual information between the connected nodes are above the threshold.

  • Mutual information between all nodes can be inspected by clicking ‘Complete Graph’.

  • Mutual information computation will be based on the the network instantiation chosen in the ‘Enter Case’ drop-down list
