Graphviz Neato

Description
Spring model layouts. Neato attempts to minimize a global energy function, which is equivalent to statistical multi-dimensional scaling. The solution is achieved using stress majorization, though the older Kamada-Kawai algorithm, using steepest descent, is also available.
Category: Force
Layout algorithms that follow physical analogies by simulating a system of attractive and repulsive forces. The first successful method of this kind was proposed by Eades in 1984.
