VISUALGRAPHX: interactive graph visualization within Galaxy

Motivation: We developed VisualGraphX, a web-based, interactive visualization tool for large-scale graphs. Current graph visualization tools that follow the rich-internet paradigm lack an interactive and scalable visualization of graph-based data. VisualGraphX aims to provide a universal graph visualization tool that empowers the users to efficiently explore the data for themselves at a large scale. It is available as a visualization plugin for the Galaxy platform, such that VisualGraphX can be integrated into custom analysis pipelines. Availability and Implementation: VisualGraphX has been released as a visualization plugin for the Galaxy platform under AFL 3.0 and is available with instructions and application data at http://gitlab.com/comptrans/VisualGraphX/.
