Voyant FeatureClusters (beta)

FeatureClusters is a visualization tool for viewing associations between words, based on commonalities in the feature sets of the words. This is illustrated using a force-directed graph, wherein each word is a node in the graph. Nodes are connected to one another if they share the same feature. Features are represented by the smaller circles (or petals) which surround each word. Moving your mouse over a word will show the feature details associated with that word. Clicking on a word will highlight its connections to other words.
