hidive-wordstream

Visualizing the evolution of topics extracted from HIDIVE Lab publication titles over time. Written in vanilla JS and D3.

Play around at: https://huyen-nguyen.github.io/hidive-wordstream/

How it works:

  • The WordStream shows frequent words from the titles, categorized by publication venues.
  • The font size of each word reflects its frequency, while the stream height represents the number of publications.
  • You can click on any word to track its usage trend over time, which will also filter the underlying data table for more detailed analysis.

Little nuggets that I like:

  • 'Read more' when the author list becomes too long
  • Hovering over the legend text opens up a list of venues
  • The background in the header resembles a flowing stream~
