Claim Text:
1. A method, performed using one or more hardware processors in conjunction with a computer-readable medium, for producing a processed graph, the method comprising: receiving an original graph that expresses a set of nodes and a set of relationships among respective pairs of nodes; selecting, using at least one of the hardware processors, edges to constitute paths, so as to produce a bundled graph, the paths being associated with respective relationships expressed by the original graph; said selecting comprising minimizing a cost function that is expressed as a sum of contributions to the cost function, the contributions including: ordering, using at least one of the hardware processors, paths in the bundled graph to produce an ordered bundled graph; separating, using at least one of the hardware processors, edges in the ordered bundled graph to produce the processed graph; storing the processed graph; and providing a visual rendering of the processed graph on an output device.
